A playful, yet also meditative experience.
In her inaugural Residency year, we showed the Toronto Première of Lee Su-Feh’s Dance Machine, a kinetic sculpture that is transformable into multiple configurations.
The public was invited to enter this family-friendly installation and share tasks, play, and work with the artists who act as hosts and facilitators. An embodied experience that has the potential to inspire deep rest as well as mindful play, the Dance Machine is simply a beautiful dynamic object to witness from multiple perspectives.
Dance Machine premiered at Festival TransAmériques in 2017, and it is now being shown across Canada.
