Space awaits...

Today we entered the control room of a space centre, and travelled to the moon.
Once we arived we experienced the feeling of zero gravity, met stange aliens and designed a new universe.
Enjoy the photos :)

Into the air...

Last week we looked at the contours of the land and created valleys and mountains.
Today we moved away from the ground and into the clouds. 
We enjoyed a relaxed space with beautiful music, gentle lighting and billowing silks.

Here are some photos from the day, we hope you enjoy :)

Mapping the landscape

Today we continued using the suspended net to look at contours of the earth.
We started with gentle movements of the net - a reminder of last week, then we went on to using our bodies and large balls to create mountains and valleys.
Slowly we introduced adding detail to our newly created landscape, weaving coloured strips of fabric, we marked out the rivers, roads, fields and flowers!

Enjoy the photos.

Contours 

Today we suspended a large net from the ceiling on pieces of elastic. 
Using our bodies we stretched and pulled the net to create the contours of mountains and valleys. We experimented with different lighting and projection angles and Geoff and his music team were busy creating gentle sounds, slowly rising and falling, like the landscpe we were creating with the net.

Here are the photos from the session,
Enjoy!
