Part of Tramway's Dance International Glasgow festival, 9 - 24 May
through warm temperatures affirms castor oil's legacy as a natural remedy, an elixir, and a historic source that transcends boundaries. This performance takes the audience on a journey of reconnection—with nature and the body.
Friday 16 May, 7 to 8pm | Saturday 17 May, 2 to 3pm
Blending vocals and dance, the work shifts from meditative to unfiltered expression. Roars and vocal purges confront inner turmoil, embodying a journey toward self-acceptance. Live cello and electronic soundscapes intertwine as performers shift between solos, duos, and collective movements, drawing the audience into intimate experiences.
The work builds toward a place of warmth, inviting release, renewal.
Originally commissioned to open the 20th Anniversary of The Edinburgh Art Festival (2024) and winning Bestie Award for Movement, through warm temperatures has been presented as a trio at ActOral Festival (Marseille, France, 2024). This is the first time presenting in Mele's hometown, Glasgow.
