Description | Shoreline ""combines acting, video and visual art in an attempt to examine the relationship between live and recorded performance"". Set in south-east Asia.
"Beginning at the point when a brother and sister, whose relationship is highly incestuous, are at the threshold of permanent separation from a deranged and overbearing mother, Shoreline deals with barriers: between the land and the sea, between mother and daughter, fiction and autobiography, past and present, indigenous and colonial populations. Barriers both tangible and illusory." |
