> UNSETTLED is a series of one-on-one installation performance works that engage audiences on a profoundly different level.

The UNSETTLED works were installed at major venues such as the BRISBANE POWERHOUSE, to independent venues such as the Sub-station, Sean Young Studios and Brisbane Festival after dark program. These works look at how we can engage with dance differently, how we tell secrets and keep them. They are designed to provoke, challenge and unsettle both the audience and the performer. They challenge what we want and expect from live performance and they look at connecting on a deeply human and individual way with audiences.
