As part of the Lowry’s ongoing Edit series, artist and choreographer Joe Moran will be taking up residence in The Lowry’s gallery space.

He’ll be exploring the gap between traditional theatre and art galleries with his new show Live Creations – which will draw on his multiple experiences as a dancer, choreographer, curator and visual artist.

Working with a small team of dancers he will be creating a new performance work ‘Before We Are Dead’ – which will be seen alongside his two-screen film installation, ‘Here and Not’, created in collaboration with designer Sam Williams.

There will also be new wall pieces, drawn in spray paint.
