Previous Production: Oresteia Images

.

Oresteia Images was a performance and art show staged at the Hermit Foundation, Plasy, Czech Republic, where Julie Newdoll and Belinda Van Valkenburg were awarded a residency in 1992.

Newdoll created paintings, photographs and sculptures inspired by the subject of Necrobiology as it relates to Greek Tragedy. These were combined with paintings and photographs by Belinda Van Valkenburg, who incorporated the concepts of time and direction into the piece. A score was written and recorded by Newdoll, van Valkenburg, Craig and Misha Birnie and Charles Granich.

During the performance, over 100 images were back-projected onto a screen while the music played and live performers acted out scenes from Aeschylus' play "Oresteia" in front of and behind the screen.
