Inuk is the Inuit word for human being. Inuk 2 is about the challenge to survive as a human being; a tribal dance for the 21st century. Internationally acclaimed for the emotional punch packed into her inventive choreography, Meryl Tankard is one of Australia's finest contemporary artists. Inuk 2 is Meryl Tankard's first work for Sydney Dance Company, bringing her brilliance and vision to create a work of electrifying dance theatre. Recognised for the heightened theatricality of her concepts, Meryl Tankard has made acclaimed new works for some of the world's finest companies including Australian Dance Theatre, The Australian Ballet, Nederlands Dans Theater and Lyon Opera Ballet. Her large-scale commissions, such as the Opening Ceremony of the 2000 Sydney Olympics, bear testimony to her imaginative range. "One of Meryl Tankard's extraordinary talents is her ability to express the ineffable tangibly. As with musical composition, her works are aesthetically and technically structured, yet invoke deep emotional responses that evade expression in mere words" Larry Ruffell, The Canberra Times |
