Slip is a captivating duet between sound artist Aviva Endean and dancer choreographer Rebecca Jensen that unravels the intricate threads connecting sound, image, and time. This layered dance work invites audiences to delve into the entanglement of all things, exploring the delicate balance between synchrony and disconnection, whether with our histories, the natural environment, our bodies, or each other.

Through the illusion of Foley art, Slip confronts the complexity of our present reality. Foley, a cinematic technique where sounds are recreated using eclectic objects and body movements, becomes a tool to explore the interplay between sound and movement. In Slip, delay, dissonance, and slippage disrupt the harmony, pulling apart familiar pairings and abstracting them into a realm where connections are severed, rewired, and stretched to the point of absurdity.

Slip is a thought-provoking journey through the spaces where sound and movement meet, offering a reflection on the fragility of our connections and the ever-present threat of falling out of sync with the world around us.

Slip premiered at Darebin Arts Speakeasy as part of FRAME: A biennial of dance. This production was initially commissioned for the 2022 Keir Choreographic Award by Dancehouse, the Keir Foundation, and Australia Council for the Arts, with presenting partner Carriageworks. Further development was supported by Lucy Guerin Inc ‘Moving Forward’ Residency, and the Chloe Munro Fellowship. This tour is supported by Creative New Zealand.
