GALLERY: MÓTUS 2015 FESTIVAL WOWS MILTON KEYNES

Dance was celebrated in its most beautiful form this afternoon, with an explosive set of works danced in and around Milton Keynes Gallery and Campbell Park.

The theme of the Motus 2015 festival was Response, and the promenade performance began in the gallery hub before transferring to the Margaret Powell Square, the River Sculpture, The Object and at various points en route to the Light Pyramid and Walkway.

The artwork contained within each area was used as a stimulus by the dancers to inform their artistic response relating to the work performed. And the results showed the human form working its creative side while spilling an emotional trail spanning fragility to strength.
