A creative development and showing incorporating aerial dance and interactive sculpture. This project was about combining two art forms: Hiromi Tangos visual and sculptural art, with Jo Curren’s aerial dance to create a performative, living sculpture, where both artists and sculpture transverse the ground and air; like birds slowly building a nest.
