fig-2 25/50: Cecilia Bengolea, Celia Hempton and Prem Sahib

Marking the halfway point of the fig-2 programme, choreographer and dancer Cecilia Bengolea and artists Celia Hempton and Prem Sahib are invited to collaborate for a new commission.

Drawing influences from construction sites and the potential for gendered and material conflicts within them, Hempton, Sahib and Bengolea compose a setting and soundscape that is accelerated by Bengolea’s activation of Bydlo Moussorgski’s post industrial choreography from 1945. Charged by their interest in modes of sexuality and trespass, the exhibition reflects upon the role of the individual within a semi-constructed built environment. Bengolea's performance take place on Thursday 25 June at the ICA Studio from 7 - 7.20pm.

Dancers: Cecilia Bengolea, Erika Miyauchi, Fernanda Munoz-Newsome.

Cecilia Bengolea’s performance has been generously supported by Institut Français.

25/50 Cecilia Bengolea, Celia Hempton and Prem Sahib are at fig-2 from Monday 22 – Sunday 28 June 2015.
