Only Breath by Breath Quartet

We are excited to host: Only Breath by Breath Quartet

A live immersive durational performance where electronic sound, voice, movement, and ritual converge around the elemental act of breathing.

Only Breath unfolds over three hours as a shared sensory environment moving between sound installation, meditation, and dance floor. Structured as four continuous movements, WAKE, FLIGHT, DREAM, DANCE, the performance guides the audience through shifting states of perception and embodied exploration.

Fragments of mythic text, layered electronic soundscapes, vocal improvisation, choreography, and projection create a fluid feedback loop between sound, body, and space. Audiences are invited to move, rest, listen, and dance within the performance, forming a temporary collective body shaped by breath and rhythm.

Breath Quartet is a collective of four artists: Patrick Ziza (movement), Marcus Herne (sound), James Merrell (visuals), and Margot Wilson (artist and founder). Their fully improvised performances explore breath as a rhythmic instrument and a method of collective attunement.
