Ten Days on the Island in association with Atamira Dance Company presents
TOMO VR
Choreographed and co-edited by Gabrielle Thomas (Kāi Tahu, Te Atiawa ki te Tau Ihu) alongside VR filmmaker Ed Davis
Sit down, relax, and be immersed within an extraordinary performance by Aotearoa/New Zealand’s leading Māori contemporary dance company.
TOMO VR is a unique and moving Virtual Reality experience capturing the dream space with a haunting tale of life and death.
Viewers will find themselves in a cavern of endless time, a world within a world, watching twin spirits – one travelling to the world of the living, the other transcending to the embracing arms of Hine Nui Te Pō, the Māori goddess of death.
TOMO VR produced Atamira
