Distortion
Chapter 1: The Calm Before the Storm...
Three dancers move in slow motion, suspended in time. But what happens when a storm erupts and that stillness breaks?
Drawing from medieval history and lived experience, Amelia presents a divinely dark exploration of the body - asking, what happens when something simply stops working?
Resilient. Vulnerable. Transformative.
'Distortion' reveals the hidden layers of bias, the realities of epilepsy and the complexity of chronic illness.
