The Project

As part of CREATE09 and the winner of the Bank of America CREATE Art Award, Dominoes comprised thousands of breeze block dominoes running wending their way southwards through East and South East London, finishing at dusk in Greenwich. In addition, the project will result in a film, not only of the performance elements, but with additional material filmed in each of the five host boroughs including footage of the dominoes making their way underground through a Victorian sewer, travelling by boat down Regent's Canal and through the Greenwich foot tunnel. The film will be produced during Autumn 2009.

CREATE '09

CREATE is the cultural partnership of the five host boroughs for the 2012 Games - Greenwich, Hackney, Newham, Tower Hamlets and Waltham Forest. The boroughs are working together with leading venues, cultural organisations and festivals to develop CREATE into an internationally significant festival and a permanent annual feature in the cultural calendar leading up to and following 2012.

CREATE will develop in scale and stature in the years leading up to 2012. Like the Manchester International Festival, which emerged from the Commonwealth Games, it will continue after the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games, developing East and South East London's reputation as the cultural heart of London. In 2014, the Olympic park will reopen, and CREATE will be the high point of a year-round world-class arts programme.
