URBAN 667
Unique immersive live performance by 'iconic' British performer, Shaun Caton.
This is Shaun's 667th performance to date, since he first emerged in the early 1980s. He has presented his performances worldwide and at the 58th Venice Biennale in 2019.
He was recently interviewed by Chiara Ambrosio for Resonance fm's Raft 39.
The performance uses wire and paper totems, made from entirely found materials, picked up from streets, created specifically for an audience participation shadow performance.
It is accompanied by live and pre-recorded sound, stunning colour shadow play and projected animation. The event is formed of several interwoven fractured narratives or vignettes, that come into and out of focus. Through repetition and variation, the performance reveals a strange cycle of stories told in images.
