CAROLINE WRIGHT PERFORMANCE ARTIST, IN CONVERSATION WITH CHERYL PIERCE, ARTSADMIN PRODUCER, TOYNBEE STUDIOS, LONDON
The Queen of Hungary is proud to present a unique opportunity to hear the artist and the producer behind OUT OF WATER talk about this major new Live Art commission that is part of London 2012 Festival.
OUT OF WATER is created in collaboration with Helen Paris of Curious and features a newly commissioned sound-score by acclaimed composer Jocelyn Pook. Stories of endeavour, of swimming, of sinking, interweave with haunting music, lifeguard drills, calls for help and struggles for breath.
The performances take place on Holkham Beach on the 25, 26 and 27 August at 7:30am.
