‘Locked Off’

Garden Collective

Lisbon 2018

Music by Colm K.

Videographer: Emmet Coleman.

Dancer & Choreographer: Molly Mc Alister.

Garden Collective are an art collective from Cork based in Lisbon, who I had the pleasure of meeting while there.  This piece is the first of their dance film series ‘LockedOff’, which explores confining yourself in film, and letting a performer intertwine naturally with their environment and a piece of music without the distraction of camera movement. It is improvised movement, filmed in one shot, one take, and I had not heard the music before.

It was screened at the Wicklow ScreenDance Laboratory festival 2018
