Created as an outdoor site-specific work, Depth of Field was a heroic and poetic interaction between three dancers and a city. Throughout the performance, as the city changed tempo, ordinary life shifted and morphed to reveal the unseen. Slowly, across the duration of a sunset, the connections between the dancers and the city emerged as 15 volunteers, two dogs and a toddler joined the random traffic of passers-by. These parallel realities signalled a city that rarely stops; the dancers becoming warriors in a quest for urban survival.
