Aby Watson: -ish

T1374202993
A new dance performance with various bodies of air: helium balloons, a space hopper and a human being. The balloons are old and deflating, the hopper is full and firm and the human is a dyspraxic, dyslexic dancing woman. A performance of movement, object and speech, -ish explores the subjectivity of identity, disability and (in)visibility from the perspective of a dyspraxic choreographer who feels their invisible difference does not sit easily in the current, widely accepted notion of disability. It is a performance of real effort (and real chaos) which forms an unapologetic exploration of inbetween-ness that flourishes with, and thrives on, dys-function.
