About
In Riley, Michael Riley’s 'cloud' series of photographs, with their dream-like beauty and digital manipulation, are reflected in the movement and evocative soundscape for this evocative work.
"I wanted Michael’s work to be represented properly and wanted it to come alive on stage as an extra energy and added presence to the work. Through a development process with Jacob Nash we came up with a simple and raw stage setting allowing the images to be the hero of the design. Having the images as the main focal point makes me feel like Michael is there, and everyone is onstage together." - Daniel Riley
