Naran Ja is about an orange. Maybe the last orange. It is also about myriad other objects and bodies on a stage. Some animated, some not - but all alive nonetheless.
It is an absurd journey through a space somewhere between death and rebirth, extinction and survival, human and non-human. It is a search for comfort, perhaps even hope, in the strangeness of things that we can’t quite fully comprehend.
Embodying elements of live art and clown, Naran Ja is an invitation to surrender to the absurd.
Naran Ja is built almost entirely out of found objects and repurposed materials collected during a residency at Wolves Lane Community Centre, Wood Green.
This performance is a work-in-progress.
