Kaleider @Freedom Festival 2024

31 aug.

Hull, UK

with 'Arch'

“What an incredible piece of work this is. It feels moving and timely, and a massively important commentary on where we find ourselves at this point in time.”

Witness the slow build-up and progression of Arch – with two thirds concrete, one third ice, these artists attempt to build a freestanding arch. What happens is straightforward; how it will make you feel is not. 

Accompanied by a vigil of human voices, this is an emotional journey examining the extraordinary, yet flawed systems humans create, the inevitable collapse, and its impact on ourselves and our eco-system.

A languageless score by Verity Standen holds and moves you through a relentlessly physical performance; at times meditative, and at others arresting and highly charged.
