Dance Masala x Tapori Squad for QAGOMA APT9 Summer Festival, Brisbane 2019 Drea Choreo

Dance Masala x Tapori Squad for The 9th Annual Asia Pacific Triennial of Contemporary Art (APT9) for Queensland Art Gallery and Gallery of Modern Art ( QAGOMA), as part of Summer Festival in 2019.

QAGOMA approached Drea ( @dreachoreo ) for the opportunity to choreograph a piece for site-specific dance work. She put together a piece that began with dancers moving through the packed crowd holding lights to their faces and into positions where they became living statues. After some time, the music started. The intention was to surprise, excite and move the vantage points to fully engage the crowd, before getting the crowd to dance with us from GOMA to QAG. Watch and see if we did it.
