THE FILMS:
LIMINALITY is a fulldome dance film captured in Wales and India. Five main dancers move from industrial landscapes to remote coastal areas in both countries and explore what unites and separates them in this collaboration of cultures and technologies. The piece is a snapshot into the constant cycle of transition and change. A connection to the unrelenting cycle of creation, being harnessed through motion.
