Nottingham Contemporary
PRICE : £5

Lucy Suggate returns to nottdance bringing her latest work Tender Stones.
Performers from all disciplines work to construct paper stones, a surreal production line emerges… 

Exploring the transferable properties of stone, we examine how we might begin to move with petrification, heaviness and tenderness, through the performers (paper)stone making, our attention is drawn towards expansive states of awareness. It is a strange practice of reverse extraction, possibly, and a small acknowledgement of the utterly unfathomable. 

During 2022, choreographer Lucy Suggate and visual artist Charlie Ford began collaborating during a residency at Wainsgate Dances. The residency brought together Charlie's drawing practice into orbit with Lucy's dance research. Over time these parallel encounters evolved into Tender Stones.
