'Remembrance'- Mapping Bones 5

By Saranjit Birdi 2020
'Remembrance'- Mapping Bones 5 was a drawing performance work performed at 'Draw To Perform' day of performances and workshops at Exeter Street Hall, Brighton, UK on 27th October 2019. The performance also involved a collaboration with musicians Ade Southey and Al Strachan improvising to respond to the drawing. The drawing performance is also in remembrance of my friend and dance tag-team of twenty-years who tragically passed away in August 2019. The poem was written following this tragedy: Remembrance Remembrance, An embrace of a memory. A gilt-handled casket, Or golden urn. It’s not bones we bury or burn. Remembrance, The tug-of-war tween birth and death, A snapped umbilical Unwound, undone, tied and re-hung. Remembrance The final drawing - marker pen on perspex is for sale.
