4’33” Into The Past

4’33” Into the Past was one of only three works commissioned and premiered as part of the highly regarded Campbelltown Arts Center’s 2015 Festival I Can Hear Dancing. This work challenges dominant, unsustainable modes of dance-making processes, by providing an alternative method of authorship and collaboration. The research contributes a model designed to offer sustainable practice of inter-generational and professional/community collaboration, with a shift from didactic to democratic processes that considers and meets the needs of the artist and the institution and the artists themselves.
