Ahilan Ratnamohan @ Perth Institute of Contemporary Art

Event Title: SDS1.
Participating Artists: Ahilan Ratnamohan.

Venue: Perth Institute of Contemporary Art, Perth Cultural Centre, 51 James
St, Northbridge.

Description: Returning to PICA as part of a national Mobile States tour,
former footballer Ahilan Ratnamohan performs SDS1, a thrilling
dance-inspired work derived entirely from the physicality of 'the beautiful
game'.

Exploring football (or soccer) as an art form, this physically charged
performance has the audience living the surreal, visceral yet poetic
experience of a football match. SDS1 ponders the psyche of the vulnerable
warriors on the pitch striving to be loved and hated, worshipped and
scorned, and through sheer athletic prowess, creates layers of movement that
see the player 'caught' in the performance, rather than in control of it.

Dates: 23 September 2015 to 26 September 2015.
Opening Times: 7:30pm.
