Ignition Point

AVAILABLE FOR PERFORMANCE

Ignition Point - a movement-based ecological performance devised and performed by Sandra Reeve.

A car scrapyard. An ageing woman's body. Body parts. Licence to move.

This indoor environment includes a movement art video (Peter Batty), created at Seacombe Ledges, edited in juxtaposition to the car scrapyard environment which is brought into the studio through photographs (Dave West), recorded text (Jenna Kumiega) and sound. These elements, combined with live violin music (Eleanor Davis) and movement create a poignant piece about beauty, transience, life-cycles, consumerism, memory, ageing and loss. The human figure is seen as one system within a complex of dynamic ecological systems which create the fabric of life. Body, feelings and thought are all part of those systems. The piece invites you as audience to engage with your own stories in relation to these issues, much as a poem both evokes environments for you to experience but then also leaves space for you to feel your own reality in relation to the poem.
