Burrowing

By Brighid Black 2024

Maria Maza

This performance developed from my research into embodied experience of underground spaces, specifically caves in North Yorkshire and Nenthead Mines in Cumbria. The event took the form of a performance lecture, concluding with a participatory ceremony. It involved movement, language, artefacts, video projection (including digitised Super8 film) and a soundscape, as well as deep contemplation, in which the audience was invited to participate. The performance took place at Northumbria University.
