Francesca Harper in conversation with work by Nick Cave

“In this video, Unarmed (2018) has been reincarnated as an interactive piece through Nick Cave’s invitation for Choreographer and Dancer, Francesca Harper, to respond to the work. Dressed in a rippling, black, chiffon gown, Harper moves with a tension of ink spreading across wet paper. Her body undulates around the sculpture, but like the wreath, she never fully embraces the work.”
