The Christ of Agony (a passion)
Film premiere of the pond performance for drowned piano and dispersed tape
celebrating one year of ‘Piano Drowning’ by Annea Lockwood
composed and presented by Ynyr Pritchard
film by Culture Colony
Building upon his previous work ‘boddi’, (performed on the newly drowned piano one year ago), Ynyr Pritchard performed an entirely new composition, on and around the piano, which has spent a full year now fully immersed in the pond at Plas Bodfa. Using the structure of the Passion of Christ, along with a ruler, speakers, a bicycle tyre inner tube, two brushes, a piece of plastic sheeting and a large piece of white cloth, Pritchard explores issues of climate change, war, protest and the inevitable passage of time.
