Birgit Deubner - Devotional Choreography I & II

Artist: Birgit Deubner

Venue: QUAD Digital Screens

Date: 9th May - 26th June 2009

This was an exhibition featured on the QUAD Digital screens around the building.

Devotional Choreography / Khoreia is a composition of films and video display that concentrates on the visual poetry of movement and gesture, developed over centuries to express faith.

The artist takes on the role of choreographer, composing a dialogue between faith rituals; this process leads an investigation into the life of gestures, which form a shared language, in inseparable association with religious expression.


(ORIGIN of Choreography: from Greek khoreia ‘dancing in unison’ (from khoros ‘chorus’ + -graphy)
