Venue 1 - Papa Tuatahi

Papa Tuatahi is our headlining venue that platforms new and archival dance film created by artists from Aotearoa and beyond. Throughout our Whatumanawa Season you will see a wide range of filmic styles that embrace modes of interactivity and participation, architectural body cartography, street style improvisation, feminist ritual, super 8 film nostalgia, choreographic tasking and archival collage. 

흐름. Flow

Cindy Jang-Barlow

A short film created in a short period of time. Exploring the outskirts of the physical bubble, even the bubble between yourself and the mind games.

This period has affected us in different ways, maybe it’s heightened areas in your life that have been suppressed? Maybe you haven’t had the time to process anything?

“What does being fluid mean to you?” Using phone calls with friends, our thoughts in illustration, movement and music.

Let us know if you would like to share your response to these times. Email Janghuddle@gmail.com or contact us through the Tempo social media pages.

 

A Zoom Hui will be held through the 흐름. Flow Facebook event on 7 June at 7:30pm to discuss the work and its themes, all welcome!

 

Trigger warning: Please note that this film touches on themes of mental health.

Thank you to all the artists out there pushing the boundaries and trying new ways to create spaces and connections over this tough time. Thank you to my bubble and for making it through with me and to the friends for the many calls to tell me it's okay to feel "less human" over this time, because we're not "less human". And that my worth doesn't come from what I can or cannot achieve. Thank you to the Tempo team as well!
