Details

A man whose memories are carried by birds. A woman whose children have grown with the trees. A family whose garden is the fathomless ocean. If who we are and what we call home is interwoven with nature, what happens when everything starts to change? Performed within a stunning multi-screen film installation, with a soundscape of birdsong, electronic music and a new score for string quartet, Above Me The Wide Blue Sky draws together stories of love, loss and belonging from an ever changing world. A long awaited follow-up to their critically acclaimed On Ageing in 2010. Co-commissioned by Live at LICA and Warwick Arts Centre.
