Quantum Tangerine
Presented by gracEbella
Enter into an animated dreamscape, where we delve into the tale of a cat, a box, and a radioactive orange. This electrifying motion show explores quantum spheres through explosive contemporary dance and quirky projection art.
Parkin Award–winning Quantum Tangerine returns to the stage to open conversations, collapse boundaries and crumble distinctions between physical/virtual artist/audience. Drawing from both Surrealist and Dada aesthetics, we celebrate exploring the body as the mind. Undoing traditional Western Cartesian dualism, we offer the body as an intelligible medium to twist and fold multiple realities.
At the end of the performance, we split reality into juicy segments to share- inviting the audience to play in the space, paint, and create a world together. You’ll never look at oranges the same way again.

gracEbella is a multidisciplinary collective united by their shared love of movement. They believe art is an emancipatory expression of life and explore existential questions through zany yet down to earth aesthetics. Hailing from Whakatū (Nelson), the two Graces love to fuse their dance and fine arts practices into dynamic new forms.
