The Duo now

The duo now is a collaborative work between Julyen Hamilton and Barre Phillips.

The two performers create an instant composition using their wealth of knowledge and skills.

I was honored with the quest of lighting their duet in 2017 April at Dock11. The assignment was the most free and complex: I had to design a lighting plot that does not facilitate the performance but presents a concept on its own. The two performers work the same way, and through listening and understanding the time-based aspect of the other two players, compliments the performance as a common creation.

The performance was approximately 50 minutes.

I selected some stills to represent the work, from the video recording made by Julyen Hamilton.
