<\/div>\n
Point A: Prelude (for Ukraine)<\/strong> is a durational live action, which serves as an introduction to a multi part, multi venue, mixed media project exploring pain, memory, origin, identity, migration and consequences of war via movement, sound, video and painting. The work employs ritualistic repetitve gestures and spatial choreography, as well as vocal and material experimentation, whilst excavating childhood memories and displacement narratives, highlighting the ongoing genocide and erasure of Ukraine.<\/div>\n
