In an unprecedented collaboration, Australasian Dance Collective (ADC) and Urban Art Projects (UAP) invite you to experience art as never before, in a site-specific dance theatre creation that defies the boundaries between performance and visual art. Crafted for the imposing UAP Foundry, Relic explores the interplay of mortality, fragility, youth and spirit. Inspired by the timeless themes of 16th and 17th-century still life paintings and the haunting symbolism of the memento mori movement, Relic reimagines these age-old notions of mortality through the fearless spirit of motocross - helmets for skulls, smoking rubber for snuffed-out candles, and the inevitable heralding of the final lap for the sands in the hourglass. The Australasian Dance Collective is proudly supported by Brisbane City Council.
