Choreographer and artist Holly Blakey speaks to RIA curator Ned McConnell about notions of liveness in her work.
This event was part of a larger series of online conversations, co-hosted by our organisation and Performance Exchange since the start of lockdown. The webcast talks feature artists, curators and other cultural practitioners engaged in live work.
As organisations both being dedicated to performance and event-based art practices, this collaboration is born from the need to keep supporting these practices whilst gatherings are not possible. In creating this platform together, we want to share artistic projects and ideas with our audiences, whilst thinking through different cultural infrastructure that works for performance in times of social isolation.
