Petroglyphs - Signs of Life
A collaboration betwen Leigh Warren & Dancers and Indigenous choreographer Gina Rings
As part of Yarnballa Cultural Festival, Petroglyphs - Signs of Life will be performed for the first time in Port Augusta as part of the opening of the Commissioned Exhibition.
It explores some of the unique elements of the Australian landscape, language and people through the oldest known form of visual communication, petroglyphs.
Performed by Indigenous and non-Indigenous dancers, together with singers from the central desert, in a space transformed by specially commissioned artworks, Petroglyphs - Signs of Life brings together dance performance, music, sound composition and visual art.
The artists, choreographers, curators and desginers work together to fuse image, music and movement into a perfrormance of great power and beauty, linking the mystery of ancient times with the present day.
First performed in 2005 in the gallery space of Tandanya National Aboriginal Cultural Institute, this award winning production features indigenous and non-indigenous artists working together to celebrate Australia Culture.
