In The Summit, an inflatable fabric sculpture fills the performance space. Two dancers move separately and in tandem, contorting and positioning as symbiotic pairs. Live video is projected, manipulated, and mapped onto the inflatable sculpture and dancers' bodies as a pair of 3-D planes. These morph as live data collected from the scene distorts the spheres into jutting, unpredictable shapes. Steve Whalley's music accompanies the performance.
The inflatable sculpture emerged from Hursty's work with hot glass. The Summit projects the experience of being inside of a glass object as it is formed— reflecting the heat of glass and the intensity of projected light.
