"Symbiosis"

A Sound Installation with Manoli Moriaty ‘Symbiosis describes the close and often obligate relationship between organisms of different species. This biological phenomenon lends its name and serves as core concept for this interdisciplinary art performance.’ (Moriaty, 2010) In this collaborative performance, Frances-Kay provides improvised movement whilst wearing sensors that relay a live feed back to the mixing desk. ‘The resulting performance presents a feedback loop between the art disciplines and their respective performers. Rather than being a parallel demonstration of two separate live art forms, it is necessary for the two performers to closely collaborate in order to create...

Rather than being a parallel demonstration of two separate live art forms, it is necessary for the two performers to closely collaborate in order to create the project’s end result; the contrasting art would have no direction without the musician’s arrangement, and the sound would be inanimate and lifeless without the artist’s motions.’ (Moriaty, 2013)

A Performance Installation. “What am I sorry for? Sorry for not equalling the glossy images of women, images that are simulations of our collective fantasy. Sorry for performing the rituals which should keep me in line with an idea of a standard set down by people unknown. Inviting the audience into her world, she lets us explore her whimsical beliefs – her behaviour, clothes, emotions and drinking problems.” Using repetition, satirical actions and a tub of red paint, the performer enters a cycle of everyday actions that represent society’s view of women and her responses.

"Sorry"

A Performance Installation.   “What am I sorry for? Sorry for not equalling the glossy images of women, images that are simulations of our collective fantasy. Sorry for performing the rituals which should keep me in line with an idea of a standard set down by people unknown. Inviting the audience into her world, she lets us explore her whimsical beliefs – her behaviour, clothes, emotions and drinking problems.”   Using repetition, satirical actions and a tub of red paint, the performer enters a cycle of everyday actions that represent society’s view of women and her responses. With the word “sorry” painted across a large cloth that is placed on the floor she moves between the cloth and chair wearing a long ball gown, taking her hair down, placing it back up, swaying in her heels to dancing bear foot, shaving with paint, showering in wine to and finally literally, painting on her smile.
