vignettes – Ruby Frances Jones - This solo performance is a series of images, cut and pasted. Each image frames a figure whose posture is born from a feeling or memory. The face each figure wears asks for their gesture and body to be heard.

The transformative power of collaboration is at the heart of this evening. What is collaboration? What forms can it take? And what is made possible in and through collaboration? The means and spaces in which exchange takes place are explored. And is this exchange a creative act that can transform our understanding of the world?

The relationship to hierarchies is questioned: ideas of beginning and end, of initiation and reaction, of creation and execution are broken down and transformed. Space is created for a view of living together; a network, a forest, a society, cooperation, a common force.

Collaboration becomes a political and creative act, the basis for perceiving and shaping togetherness and the relationship between humans and nature.
