Following a series of choreographic residencies in Edinburgh, Berlin and New York, Jack Webb and Rosalind Masson are joined by sound artist and composer Jan Hendrickse from London and DroneShaman James T. McKay of The Cosmic Dead to perform Quartet. This unique collaboration is a meeting of minds and practices born from a serendipitous encounter. The work was conceived and mentored by Daniel Squire, performer, teacher, curator and former dancer with Merce Cunningham Dance Company. For Masson and Webb the scenario imposed is that of making distinct solo work for oneself and each other. Idiosyncratic energy meets fluid and dynamic form, a man and woman explore different faces of the same coin. The resulting qualities reflect upon one another and the viewer, resonating to the audience through sound and movement. A dialogue is created by the artists through interaction, struggle, confluence and transformation.
