Tasdance is calling for participants for a project with the Junction Arts Festival, Drinking Water by Sete Tele and Lisa Hirmer.
The Drinking Water team of Sete Tele and Lisa Hirmer, are keen to enlist the services of local households interested in participating in an experimental performance art work. (Don’t worry it’s not as scary as it sounds!)
Drinking Water is a participatory installation dance performance work that encourages all communities to develop and to transition to new ways of sharing water.
Each household will be tasked with gathering or "harvesting" water on/in their respective homes. The artists, Sete and Lisa, will personally visit each household in the lead up to Junction Festival to devise a water gathering process appropriate to each home, with local and environmental conditions taken into account. You will be asked to chart the "harvesting" of your water over a few weeks and then bring your water to Tasdance on Sunday September 9 to celebrate and taste the water that everyone has collected. Then we will ‘dance’ the water to Prince’s Square to join the Acoustic Picnic at the Junction Festival where the water will be transferred into the Fountain.
If you and your household are keen to be part of this art work, please contact Tasdance at info@tasdance.com.au
