Nelly Lewis
Performing at HATCH on Wednesday 24 June, 7pm
About her piece - Cinnamon Fields
Cinnamon Fields, work in progress solo inspired by Spring by Bruno Schulz. It unfolds through surreal, dreamlike imagery, moving between human and non-human states. Between conscious and subconscious, the piece explores imagination and transformation, drawing the audience into a shifting landscape of image, sensation, and emotion.
“Across each spring through which, at a certain moment, the hot gale of passion passes - that boundlessness of sorrow and intoxication, seeking in vain its adequate counterpart in reality.”
Bruno Schulz
