Between the Dog & the Wolf

"... a work of quiet intensity and lingering impact."  - Naomi van den Broek
Upcoming exhibition:
Auckland Arts Festival
Basement Theatre
Tue 14 Mar - Sat 18 Mar, 2017
Tue - Fri, 5.30pm - 10.00pm
Sat, 3.00pm - 10.00pm

The public find themselves in the set of a simple living room. They sit on the couches in the set, and put on the headphones particular to each seated position. The audio begins, and a scene unfolds in which characters talk and move, sounding as if they are in this very same space. One member of the public hears a woman speaking - is it to him? It sounds like she is sitting next to him, so he turns to look, but he has been fooled by the clarity of the audio. The only person near him is another audience member. Do they hear the same thing as he does? It seems like they do - they are suddenly all smiling.

'Between the dog and the wolf' is theatre re-contextualized. The audience is situated within the installation decorated by Hannah Beehre, 2016 Parkin Prize Winner. With the use of binaural sound recording the actors are heard speaking and moving as though they were present but never appear live. Moving video images complimenting the audio are projected down into the set; shadows grow longer, the lights switch on.

The listeners are encouraged to develop a keen awareness in this scene where time contracts and space become elastic. The story that unfolds takes place at dusk, when the slowly fading light leaves two young adults shut in a room in summer house, a space of hope and suspense.  In this interweaving of visual and aural systems of illusion, a floating quality is given to an everyday scene, exploring the unstable relationship between interpreting the world as it is and interpreting the world as we perceive it.
