— Hard bodies, soft plastics

Historically, bodily transformation has been seen as the province of mental illness or possession, the metamorphosis viewed as dangerous, demonic, uncontrollable.

Presenting a subject in myriad stages of becoming, Creature is an inextricable assemblage of human and non-human parts and the resultant haptic resonances.

Creature approaches the choreography between flesh, plastic and fabric. A contemplative offering for those drawn to the speculative, the poetic, and the quietly strange.

Costume, choreography, performance: Katrina M Rank
