Polyphony of Form
opera
presented at the Festival of Form, Athenaeum Theatre
2015
A mythopoeic meditation of the sublime, Polyphony of Form sets its scene in a post-historical historical landscape of moving form, physical, extraphysical & otherwise. Our Young Scholar (read: Space Cowboy) bears witness to this supersensory play of history and, as it unfolds before him, exclaims – bravo!
Polyphony of Form is ultimately a raw interrogation of a disembodied notion of form - what is form beyond materiality, and can it be re-embodied and expressed through a panoply of media?
