hmmmmm
Andrew and Caitlin Webb-Ellis create a multi-screen performance installation – reminiscent of the durational, visceral performance art of the ’60s and ’70s – in which they test their bodies and relationship through five hours of untrained, ecstatic movement, to ask ‘What does it mean to really be present?’.
Until 6 April 2015, Crescent Arts, Scarborough.
