Sunset over Cardboard Mountains
2010 Next Wave Festival
Friday 14 May 2010 to Friday 21 May 2010
Harnessing the evocative power of hand-made props, shadow play, lo-fi special effects and a spellbinding live musical score performed by A Wandering Mind, Sunset over Cardboard Mountains will take you on an immersive joyride to a world where childhood fears meet flights of fancy, and risk lurks at every turn.
Strap yourself into a customised cardboard box, close your eyes, open your ears and hold on!
For six nights only, twelve lucky passengers will be taken on a fluid and disorienting journey: whisked across fantastical plains, plunged into outlandish soundscapes, and pushed to the very edge of your imagination. Taking place under the cover of a giant patchwork quilt, this experiential art adventure is sure to make you feel wide-eyed and small again.
And yes, you really do get to sit in a cardboard box.
Sunset Over Cardboard Mountains marks the first collaboration between composer Ed Gould and visual artists Lisa Stewart and Rachel Feery, with dramaturgy by Margaret Cameron. This project has been developed with the support of Aphids.
