A Field of Beauty

Picture by Elly Welford

Brief Description

‘A Field of Beauty’ presents us with multiple offers to experience, appreciate and challenge what beauty can be. Individual perspectives contribute to an infinite journey of searching for beauty within us and those who surround us, igniting self-empowerment and freedom to express our uniqueness. We need to allow ourselves to surrender to an absolute polytheism of beauty to create space where acceptance resides.

‘A Field of Beauty’ is a 20 minutes dance show for 9 dancers and it was created in collaboration with the 18 dancers from VERVE 24.
