ANOSIS
set design for multimedia dance installation
Truman Brewery, London 2017
A ritual of personal transformation, ‘Anosis’ explores three emotional states relating to water; the concepts of sinking, floating and flying.
The audience dives into a visual environment, tracking the dancer’s transition across the three states and utilizing the ‘model of affect’ as a roadmap. The circumplex model used in neuroscience proposes that all affective states arise from two fundamental neurophysiological systems, one related to pleasure and displeasure and the other to arousal and deactivation.
The piece brings together the four disciplines of dance, music, fashion and architectural design and integrates scientific theories.
