How do we inhabit space? In Samuel James’ Vivaria, meaning ‘place of life’, five dancers invoke their own psychological space in environments from Japan, Australia, Germany and beyond.

A grey wall of identical doors, a ghostly car park – industrial and post industrial, the tableaus are interchangeable, like shuffling a deck of cards. This mesmerizing, Kafkaesque four-screen installation explores the subjectivisation of urban space. Caught in perpetual hum drum motion or lost in an alien world, the performer is in paradox with the space they find themselves in, and appears, at times, to somehow have adapted to the imaginary environment.
