Fissure
Sammanfattning
Fissure was a unique and unrepeatable durational performance event, a strikingly creative and affecting participatory pilgrimage through a breathtaking and ancient landscape.
To create Fissure Wilson collaborated with internationally renowned composer Jocelyn Pook, award winning poet Elizabeth Burns and choreographer Nigel Stewart, along with neuro-scientists, geologists, dancers, choirs, and cavers.
A creative encounter between artists, scientists, audiences and landscape, Fissure interrogated life, death, grief, resilience and renewal.

Beskrivning av projektet
I was creative consultant for this project developing the intellectual framework for the overall programme within which it was commissioned, The Re-Enchantment, which addresses the relationships between art and place and place-making.

The framework was ‘delphic’ and applied in a variety of contexts such as creating national partnerships, for fundraising purposes, as a curatorial strategy for the commissioning of artworks and to inform a series of events and seminars and the publication Towards Re-Enchantment – Place and its Meanings-
