How do we find our language in each others bodies?
This candid conversation between deaf artist Sue Jo Wright and theatrical artist Michelle St Anne, explores what it means to be inside your own body whilst embodying the expression of each others. Facilitated by Ira Ferris.
The conversation will weave around performances from their new work The Reckoning which is currently in development.
In a first-time collaboration between Michelle St Anne and Sue Jo Wright, The Reckoning uses the body as a site for exploring structural violence, to expose systems of violence. Through music, performance, and Auslan, this work seeks to develop a shared commentary on how we hear and what it means to listen by interrogating ableist tropes and the Deaf experience.
Inspired by recent events, lived experience and insights by Amy Remeikis' novella On Reckoning.
