interior with moving figures
This is a program title for the presentation of Peggy Baker Dance Projects’ choreographies in art gallery spaces. This site-specific format premiered at the Art Gallery of Ontario in 2011, during which we presented 4 works in 4 of the AGO’s galleries simultaneously for 70 minutes: Peggy’s Strand, move and three story house; and Doug Varone’s armour. Each of the works cycled between 4 – 7 times during the 70 minutes, and the audience was free to visit each of the galleries and discover the different works at their own pace.

“I love the notion of a fluid, mobile audience and I designed interior with moving figures to allow gallery visitors the utmost freedom. Close proximity to the dancers provides a rare, intimate view of the performance, while a broader perspective combines the effect of the dance with the impact of the visual art or architecture that surrounds it. ”
