| Description |
PENDULUM is an expansive performance installation created by percussive artist Matthias Schack-Arnott and choreographer Lucy Guerin.
Performers roam amongst a field of moving pendulums that each consist of a suspended bell that tolls, pulses and hums. As they rush through the air in visceral sweeps of sound and light, the music is driven by the speed and force of their motion.
Performers activate the bells; hurling, catching, stopping, spinning, dodging and resisting the swing in their dance with gravity. The power and vulnerability of the human body is revealed through these attempts to control the relentless rise and fall of the pendulum's weight in this eternally moving frame. |
