The film premiered as part of the AVE’s sold-out show ‘Tumbling Like Stars’ featuring new work by some of Australia’s best emerging & established composers.

The film is a visual exploration into the dualities of internal and external peace through movement and dance and feature two of Sydney’s most exciting emerging dancers Billy Keohavang & Allie Graham.

IT’S ALWAYS WONDERFUL TO WORK WITH ARTISTS WHO ARE EQUALLY PASSIONATE ABOUT THEIR CRAFT, BUT IN AN ENTIRELY DIFFERENT VERNACULAR. I LOVE THE MEETING OF THESE TWO WORLDS. AFTER THE TURMOIL AND EXHAUSTION OF THE LAST 2.5 YEARS WE WANTED TO CREATE A DEEPLY MEDITATIVE STATE IN WHICH THE VIEWER CAN DISAPPEAR FROM THE WORLD, SURRENDER AND BE IN THE MOMENT WITH US – IN A PRIVATE WORLD OF BEAUTY THROUGH MOVEMENT AND SOUND.

GAVAIN IS A SENSITIVE & SYMPATHETIC DIRECTOR AND I KNEW HE HAD THE RIGHT SENSE OF SPIRITUALITY AND GRAVITAS TO BRING THIS BEAUTIFUL SONG TO LIFE.
