Thesis Title
Pelagic States: beyond nomadic and oceanic practices

Read article at Massey Research Online:

Mr Trubridge's creative practice made a unique contribution to performance and live art through the definition of a liquid, mobile, and 鈥榩elagic鈥� approach across diverse creative disciplines and environments. He argued that a creative practice that is not restricted by disciplinary boundaries might meaningfully unsettle or question the systems that it encounters. His research proved that no other artists work in this way 鈥� moving across various practices and sometimes even working with the liquid spaces of the ocean to make unique performance projects. His works included flooded stage designs for theatre shows nationally and internationally, an underwater performance art work with freedivers, an inflated structure walked through salt鈥恖akes, beaches and deserts, and an annual live art festival on Wellington Waterfront, attended by 50鈥�80,000 individuals. Together these diverse outputs proved the unique contribution that a practice defined by liquid, ocean spaces can make to contemporary performance, art, and culture.
