This is a piece in collaboration with shunt associate artist and composer Max Ringham who has created a score in whole tone scales for strings enhanced by digital sounds. Working with exceptionally skilled aerial artists Sophie Oldfield, Catrin Osborne and Katharine Arnold to create movement that is informed directly by the sound. I am creating a world where the performers never touch the floor, the floor is the unknown and the piece explores the aerialists the relationship to it.
