Graeae in association with Strange Fruit: Against The Tide (2010)

Presented as part of The World Picnic in Campbell Park, this outdoor presentation saw to-be-regulars, disabled-led UK theatre company Graeae, collaborate with Australian performing arts company Strange Fruit, to tell a tale about living in a world with the challenge of receding oceans. Alongside a stage and soundscape the defining feature was the use of 4m long bendy sway poles to allow aerial choreography and interaction.

This shot was an attempt to capture a detail of the more abstract interaction of people and shape alongside wider shots which set the scene and location, but missed the characters of the individuals, which this achieves.
