The Body Canvas

How can artists can be integrated within a performance despite the medium in which they are working? A painter, drawer, filmmaker and dancers move through a series of structured meetings throughout London, developing communication and expression. This film is a culmination of months of laboratories mixing dance on screen with documentary, featuring performers from the London Contemporary Dance School and fine artists. It is co-directed and created by Paul Vernon & Julie Schmidt Andreasen. In 2015 it screened in Copenhagen and was broadcast globally on ikonoTV. Its world premiere was at the Zealous X exhibition (Oxo Tower Wharf, Southbank, London) which was a multi-disciplinary showcase of selected works including film, photography, performance, sculpture and 2D imagery.
