“Hello, How Do You Move?” is a site-specific dance project created by Ammar, a deaf choreographer, dancer and film-maker and Rachel Nip, a hearing dancer, choreographer and theatre practitioner. This project explores how people of varying abilities can communicate and express ourselves through movement and the senses. The project engages the audience to experience movement in different spaces that are usually not considered traditional performance spaces. The improvised movements respond to the space’s design, history, uses and people associated with it.
