About this event

Arts • Other

This new performance weaves spoken stories, projected images, and dance to reflect on Palestinian life across Britain and Palestine against the backdrop of the ongoing genocide in Gaza. At its centre is Rana, a Palestinian woman in Britain, whose journeys - from collecting seawater for her aunt in the West Bank, to swimming in reservoirs in the UK - reveal connections between family history, exile, freedom of movement, and people's individual processes of moving toward liberation. A series of short audio stories, each carrying fragments of displacement, survival, and solidarity, can be listened to alongside live dance and video fragments in the gallery space.


Please note: Stories contain themes of violence, displacement and loss. No explicit images of violence or destruction are used in the piece.

Duration is approx. 60 minutes.

This will be a closed door event, so please arrive at least 5 minutes before the performance slot.

It will mainly be standing room for the audience - there will be limited sitting so please get in touch if you have any access needs, please note that unfortunately the gallery does not have disabled access.

Tickets are 'pay what you can' and all proceeds will go to the artist and a charity of thier choosing.
