Project Description
Performance, Designed Elements. Photo by Gorm Ashurst.
Designed Elements was a durational dance piece performed at the temporary arts and music venue, The Paperworks, located off of Newington Causeway. The performance was the result of dance workshops and iterative choreography led by dancer and choreographer Charlotte Spencer and landscape designer Anoushka Feiler with participants aged 14-21. The workshop used novel props and inhabited the venue, encouraging the audience to interact and think about the space around them.
Designed Elements was made in partnership with Corsica Studios and Cityscapes, which work with artists, designers and organisations to test new ways the urban environment can be used and enjoyed. The Paperworks was run and managed by Corsica Studios as a meanwhile creative and social space. The venue was open for the summers of 2014 and 2015, an open yard off of Newington Causeway.
