pulsing party and minimalist dreamscape
In collaboration with performer Ann Trépanier and DJ po NY, Leisure Palace plays with notions of time and attention transforming the space from abandoned relic to otherworldly dancefloor. A site responsive, immersive installation that floats between pulsing party and minimalist dreamscape, the artists build an environment in and around the audience in slow motion. Premiered at InFuture Festival at Ontario Place along Toronto’s waterfront. Commissioned by Art Spin for InFuture and co-produced by Dancemakers.
Created with and performed by Amanda Acorn, Ishan Davé, Justin DeLuna, Lori Duncan, Mary Dora Bloch-Hansen, Ann Trépanier and PoNy.
