Here’s a project called Cuckoo made with the Candoco Dance Company that was filmed as part of Sadler’s Wells Digital Stage. Cuckoo is a contemporary and timeless piece carved from cherry wood and features a working cuckoo clock, bell and pendulum. This work has been made for dancer Welly O’Brien and is central to a visually striking and playful dance film. This short choreography for camera is a reflection on our changing experience of time passing, set to a poetic musical score.

Yes! The visually stunning Viktoria Modesta video, Prototype features some very beautiful creations. AltLimbPro started collaborating with Viktoria Modesta in 2011 when we were looking for a strong, bold and glamorous person to showcase examples of alternative limbs. Viktoria was all that and more. A singer/songwriter and performing artist, Viktoria had a voluntary below-the-knee leg amputation to health issues she’d had since birth and was someone who fully embraced the idea of the body as a canvas for personal expression.
