Deep Time Futures

Description

Deep Time Futures – moving with the more-than-human was a project funded by the Bartlett Award, Fine Art department of Newcastle University, and generously supported by Great North Museum. Over a series of eight workshops that took place in Autumn 2024, project participants worked together using bodily expression to explore ideas around place, time and materiality. They experienced underground places on a fieldtrip to Killhope Lead Mining Museum and moved with the elements on the rooftop of The Sill (Northumberland National Park Landscape Centre). Deep Time Futures – moving with the more-than-human has built on the communities and knowledges formed through Deep Time Bodies, a series of movement workshops initiated and led by Liz Pavey (dance practitioner and lecturer at Northumbria University) in 2023/4. The Deep Time Futures workshops were co-designed by Liz Pavey and Bridget Kennedy (lecturer in Fine Art at Newcastle University). Together with the project participants they looked to extend the idea of Deep Time beyond the historical and geological into the speculative territory of the future.
