work/description
OutWall is a dance theatre performance for public spaces that investigates the challenges of being inside the walls during the lockdown and re-exploring our new freedom outside, through architecture and dance
We live surrounded by physical and invisible walls, so many walls that rose throughout human history, political walls, social walls, emotional walls. We are protected and divided by these walls. These solid structures still rise between us. China walls, Ireland’s Medieval castle walls, the poetic ‘The Wall’ of Pink Floyd to the wall that I create for you, there is one wall that we all have been experiencing since March 2020, the pandemic wall… the walls of our homes, the wall of social distance and the walls of divided nations. Reflecting upon human survival and the skills needed to become a dominant species, I wonder how can we narrow these gaps.- Selma Daniel
