Aorta
Stephanie Lake and Robin Fox pair up with Chunky Move to explore the beating of a human heart.
Overview
Stephanie Lake’s last collaboration with her partner, and fellow artist and composer Robin Fox, was as recent as this year’s Melbourne Festival, where A Small Prometheus quickly sold out its run at the Arts House. It's easy to see why the work sold out too, as the interplay between the physical complexity of her movement and his dense, layered soundscapes was mesmerising to experience.
Even though the Festival’s only just wrapped up there’s already another chance to see the work of this duo again. While Lake’s choreography in A Small Prometheus drew deeply on Fox’s self-propelling, vivid fire sculptures, the world premiere of Aorta for Melbourne dance outfit Chunky Move takes its inspiration from a different kind of metronomic, throbbing rhythm — the beating of a human heart.
