Four Scythe: Archival Project

Four Scythe scoured Dance Collection Danse for ‘undocumented’ costumes in the Dancemakers’ archive for our 50th anniversary Archival Project.

This virtual quilt was created with the desire to give undocumented costumes a permanent virtual home. Each patch was crafted using a section of a costume, clicking on a patch, reveals the original costume used in a show.

This quilt is also a tribute to all the people working behind the scenes, celebrating their unseen efforts, dedication and hardwork that bring performances to life.

An Educator, SFX Artist, Product Designer, currently an Expressive Arts Therapist in training, Four Scythe is happiest when pursuing her curiosities. Having come into the arts relatively recently, she has experimented with a wide spectrum of modalities- visual arts, singing, dancing, improv, sculpting, SFX make up, puppetry, body art, clowning, story-telling, poetry and many more. Four finds the arts, no matter the modality, are a balm to her soul.
