Justine A. Chambers & Laurie Young
One hundred more
One hundred more is urgently informed by our current socio-political climate, which has produced a groundswell of bodies resisting and moving in collective anger, captured and replayed in an endless torrent of images. Centred on an iconic gesture of resistance, the work is an incremental choreography of personal physical strategies the artists deploy as women of colour and mothers. This first collaboration by Chambers and Young, Canadian choreographers based in Vancouver and Berlin respectively, creates a steadily mounting tension through rhythmic movements both archival and emergent. Set to a pulsating score, this performance is a physical declaration of friendship and resistance.
Post-show artist talkback October 13.
