Elemental Dialogues – Air is a practice-led research project that has been running for approximately 18 months. It explores what happens when the short film Air is handed over to a network of poets /writers, sound artists/musicians, and scholars, with the original soundtrack removed. Each contributor then produces an interpretation of Air, through their own diverse practice. These interpretations are then re-embedded into the film, creating new, pluridisciplinary artworks, each of which tells a different and sometimes radically unexpected story. At St John’s we will explore embodied interpretations through projection, music, words, dance and tacit drawing.
