Ashley Dyer: Tremor
A sonic-kinetic performance where the stage is sculpted by sound.
Overview
Making its world premiere at Arts House in North Melbourne this week, Tremor is described not as a dance piece, but rather an 'intense sonic-kinetic encounter'. Created by Ashley Dyer in collaboration with sound artist Nigel Brown, the show will be performed on a custom-built eight-by-eight-metre vibrating floor covered with more than 200 metal poles. Music and sound shakes the floor, sending tremors through the poles and creating an ever-shifting artificial grassland.
Over the course of almost an hour, Dyer, Brown and a trio of female dancers will examine the effect of pressure and vibration, on both the body and the earth, through a hypnotic combination of movement, performance and sound. Tremor runs from November 16–20, with a post-show Q&A on November 17.
