Performance to mark the first filling
of hydro lake Dunstan, Clyde, New Zealand - Lloyd Godman Lake Fill I - 1992
The Lake Fill series of performances followed the Last Rivers Song of 1983-4. By 1992 the construction work on the hydro dam Clyde had reached completion and Electrocrop were ready to fill Lake Dunstan.
Rather than engage in another series of photographs similar to those of Last Rivers Song, for the filling of Lake Dunstan, I had decided on a performance -based work, a ritualistic ceremony at the very time the water was rising, the river dying, the lake growing |
