Description On Display devised by Heidi Latsky Dance (NY) began as an annual worldwide event to commemorate the United Nations International Day of Persons with Disabilities and is now a global event performed in over 42 countries throughout the world. This human art exhibit celebrates all our diversities we have in Aotearoa which include, but are not limited to; age, size, gender, disability (physical, social, intellectual), race, culture, religion, skin colour, distinguishing features, refugee, LGBTQI+ community etc.The goal of the installation is to present a living gallery of people of different diversities, who explore their individual movement choices within a structured improvisation where stillness and focus are key requirements. This On Display Dunedin premiere is presented by Touch Compass Dance Trust, an inclusive Arts organisation which has been exploring inclusivity through live performances, training and participation opportunities over two decades.
