Dwelling in Possibility

Dwell is our response to the demolishing of our local community, and highlights the importance of our collective embodied memory, and ultimately our sense of belonging. It was developed and performed by members of GGDC and the last remaining tenants of Westminster Street in Gateshead.

Dwell was filmed and edited by Frances Anderson and it screened at Sadler’s Wells as part of the Elixir Festival. 

Dwelling in possibility Dwell is a collaboration between Dry Water and Grand Gestures Dance Collective. Together we seek to celebrate and make visible the artistic expression of the older dancer Grand Gestures Dance Collective are a group of men and women who practice, and perform the art of Improvisation. We enjoy performing in public spaces where we seek to invite the curiosity of the accidental audiences we encounter. Dwell is our response to the demolishing of our local community, our collective embodied memory, and ultimately our sense of belonging. www.drywater.org
