The piece moves fluidly through time, space, and layered realities—occupying the liminal. Working in tandem with lush sound design and verdant set design, the lighting and projections were crafted to visualise these amorphous, disparate worlds and to evoke a familiar yet otherworldly atmosphere—creating a space in-between, for both the emotional and physical journeys of the performance to unfold.
