Parasols
Pathirane Sara
Dance video work Parasols is a dreamlike flit in a meadow lined with large plague root leaves. The work is like a moving postcard from colonial times in East Asia. The music of the dance video leads to soundscape reminds of sounds in between plants and soundscape of dewdrops.
