Tender Stones consists of performers from all disciplines working to construct paper stones. A surreal production line that explores the transformative properties of stone, examining how we might begin to move with petrification, heaviness and tenderness. Through (paper) stone making our attention is drawn towards expansive states of awareness, it’s a strange practice of reverse extraction, possibly repair or a small acknowledgement of the utterly unfathomable running alongside the magical.
