‘Puzzle Creature’ is a term coined by artist / architect duo Arakawa (1936 - 2010) and Madeline Gins (1941 - 2014), it refers to an organism’s constant questioning of its existence and surroundings. Adrienne Hart has created a beguiling performance experience inspired by Arakwara and Gins, featuring an award winning team of collaborators. An immersive set design creates a space where performer and public co-exist; three exquisite dance artists drive the performance, accompanied by a newly commissioned multi-speaker score.
Puzzle Creature also features integrated British and Japanese Sign Language alongside audio description.
