Weather Dances

Rosemary Lee  

After the success of Remote Dances, Rosemary Lee and Nic Sandiland are developing a new project for 2009, Weather Dances: a series of large-scale outdoor projections in which the on-screen dancer reacts to changes in their immediate environmental conditions.

Each on-screen performer is affected in real time by the wind, rainfall, and temperature.

As passers-by are made aware of the seasonal and climatic fluctuations, the figure will become an iconic presence in the city over a period of up to a year.
