choreography & performance: C&O photography: C&O music: Thomas Jefferson Bed: cosy, safe, warm, haven of rest. Bed: trapped and limited, resented prison. Having experienced bouts of depression, we realise bed is not always perceived as an image of comfort. This piece explores that conflicted relationship making insights into the nature of the condition. Currently at the stage of research and development, the piece we create will be maintained within our main area of interest - mental health. Drawing from personal experience as well as undertaken background research, we aim to create work responsive to our findings about sleep and beds. Addressing the area of great significance in both of our lives, we hope to raise more awareness on mental well-being. |
