Following the successful pilot project RESPONSE TIME: PILOT LIGHT we are inviting expressions of interest from performance makers to be involved in the next 48 hour challenge taking place Friday 25th – Sunday 27th October

The project asks for participants to create a performed response to art, space and environment at the Gas Gallery working either alone or as part of a group. Participants are given 48 hours to develop short performances which are presented to an audience for three showings at 5.30PM, 7PM and 8.30PM on the Sunday evening.

The pilot project RESPONSE TIME: PILOT LIGHT took place Friday 20th September – Sunday 22nd September. Words, images and footage from the weekend is available at the Celf Ceredigion Art facebook page and at the Scriptography Productions website

The Gas Gallery - Oriel Nwy is the flagship project of Celf Ceredigion Art  Over the coming year the Gas Gallery will be a centre of excellence for all that is contemporary and exciting on the Ceredigion arts scene and beyond.

The response project on Friday 25th – Sunday 27th October will feature two exhibitions Transitions (work by post-graduates students from Aberystwyth University School of Art)  and Collaborations: Aberystwyth Paper Press Print and will be curated by Branwen Davies.

If you are interested in participating please send a brief profile of you and your work with a covering email explaining why you are interested in being involved in the project. We are interested in hearing from performers, directors, performance artists, digital media artists, writers, film-makers, sound artists, musicians, dancers, story-tellers, spoken word. Please mention if you are interested in performing alone or would like to work collaboratively with other performance makers.

We are also seeking mentors to provide support, advice and direction to participants during the development weekend. If you are interested in the role of mentor or would like further information or would like to take part then please contact Sandra Bendelow scriptographyproductions@gmail.com

The Response Time project is on ongoing project which will continue to work with Celf Ceredigion Art and the Gas Gallery but will also be seeking other suitable “spaces” in which to present performed responses to art, space and environment. We are seeking guest curators for future response projects so please do get in touch if you might be interested.

Please note that though we are exploring funding options the RESPONSE TIME project is currently an unfunded project so no fees are available for participation. Income generated from ticket sales will be used for future projects to cover production expenses and cover costs at the Gas Gallery to support www.celfceredigionart.org.uk
