PIXEL & FRIENDS is a playful and vivid journey through the colour spectrum - told in dance, live music and digital animation. Our central character is PIXEL —a coloured square —the smallest amount of colour on a computer.
Pixel has lost her colour. Sad and lost in space she meets LINE ...who can take us anywhere we choose to go. He takes PIXEL on an amazing global tour of the colour spectrum to find her colour.
Together they travel through different coloured worlds from cool to warm. They meet new friends - Contrast, Shape, Form, Texture, Space and Rhythm.
PIXEL & FRIENDS is an original story and concept by multi-award-winning Theatre of Image Director/Designer Kim Carpenter and developed with a team of artists - Alyssa Rothwell, Digital Animation; Peter Kennard, Composer; and Narelle Benjamin, Choreographer.
PIXEL is played by Dancer, Kristina Chan. LINE is played by Dancer, Tim Ohl. Both are former principal dancers with Australian Dance Theatre. Kristina has just starred in Tanya Liedtke’ s last work Construct for The Sydney Festival. Tim has just returned from an international tour with Australian Dance Theatre performing in London and Paris. Jeremy is a multi-talented musician. He is an accomplished percussionist and Playschool regular. He recently toured with Genevieve Lemon in I Like To Sing!
PIXEL & FRIENDS is a playful celebration of the joy and beauty of colour and the enormous emotional power it plays in our lives. Sydney’s Powerhouse Museum - a centre for design and science - is the perfect context to experience PIXEL & FRIENDS...THE COLOUR SHOW during the April school holidays 2008.
1-27 April 11am & 12.30pm
