A little sister sees everything, even if she doesn’t understand what exactly is going on. She senses it and begins to recount events on her own accord. It’s about the relationship between her father and brother. And she positions herself in the middle as she navigates both sides. She has her own witness who follows and films her to document her reactions as they take effect.
LITTLE SISTER is a performance work that focuses on the recounts of a female’s childhood within a family unit while giving multiple interpretations of the narrative both as a movement study and perceptual concept. Her story becomes filtered into various storylines as she interchanges between playing characters. The work plays with partial exposure as fragments of narrative and viewpoints are framed for the audience (sitting on stage) through a moving camera, live projections and pre-recorded text.
