Exhibition Overview:
'Spawn' forms part of Rebecca's ongoing research into dance as an equally practical and speculative force. Working with fiction to move beyond the stalemates of the present - creating small openings to the new, unnamable and undefinable.
What if the body is actually getting bio-hacked when it's in movement? Through enacting gestures from different sense realms could we unlock portals to time travel? Could dance be the conduit in the search of a materiality for feeling and thinking the non-human and other forms unknowable to human sensing?
This video work will be accompanied by live performance at times throughout the exhibition period.
Artist Bio: Rebecca Jensen is a dancer, choreographer, and teacher. Her practice is centred on the body and rooted in choreography, but shape-shifts into many forms.
