About Lighthouse

Poised between dance, circus and performance art, Lighthouse is a multi-disciplinary piece by solo artist Hazel Lam.

Hazel uses the idea of gentleness as a tool in the face of great adversity and change.

She explores feminine movement, giving it centre stage, and reacts to modernity’s harsh realities and urban construction.

Coils of PVC tubing are treated it as a companion.

The duet of an organic body versus the inanimate tubes is playful yet antagonising.

The tension between the two escalates throughout as she asks, is it there to hold her, entice her, keep her safe or restrain her?

Plastic has become one of the major environmental concerns in recent years.

This piece is a reflection of how our generation is born into a plastic overflowing world and our role within it.

The title is a reference to Virginia Woolf’s novel To the Lighthouse.
