Fatherland/Motherland - T0597197990Nic Green explores notions of place, belonging, authenticity and identity, home and homelands and further understanding the edges of oneself in relation to where you come from, in this far-reaching performance diptych. Brought up in Yorkshire by her opera singer mother, Green recalls the cultural and environmental landscape of her Motherland in a work-in-progress: the wooded, industrialised valleys; the sweeping, blustery moorlands; the ee by gum and an' ah'll tell thi this fer nowt. In Fatherland (a development of the Arches LIVE piece in 2010), she moves towards the complex psycho-geography of her unknown Scottish father's home territory: the intoxicating dances of the terra firma; the ancient warrior women, painted and wild; and the sadness of the songs, lost and forgotten. Nic Green is an artist, performer and theatre maker creating work with a strong sense of political, environmental and social responsibility at its heart. Her award-winning feminist performance series Trilogy has toured various major national and international festivals with an estimated 1,000 female participants. | |
