Laura Fisher Flexible studio residency

This early stage of research and experimentation will develop initial ideas around glacial movement, force and slowness, building on Laura’s ongoing explorations of human and material relations and the everyday choreographic. Working to devise movement scores derived from geological data, Laura will investigate movement languages of erosion, pushing, scraping, dragging, depositing and forming that can translate across bodies of different experiences, ages and abilities in an intergenerational cast as the project develops. The project will aim to explore human and environmental entanglement through interrogating how bodily and geological movement and slowness, might relate to understandings of resistance, climate change, colonialism, collective action and ableism.
