VISUAL ART & DANCE RESPOND AS ONE.

NOCTURN and Parlor Dance co-commission inspired by the MK Gallery artwork as part of the outdoor MÓTUS Festival, Milton Keynes.

Three professional dancers. Three different generations including later life dancers. One single contact improvisation performance within the open space at MK Gallery to officially open the MÓTUS 2015 Festival. The dancers responded to the artwork and space within the gallery using the differences of their maturing bodies; both physically and mentally.

MÓTUS is a celebration of all forms of dance across the city of Milton Keynes and celebrates links with national companies including Theo Clinkard, Ffin Dance, Anjali and Motionhouse.

Funded by the Arts Council England, the festival aims to enhance and help continually develop all dance activities in the city.
