Matthew MacFarlane

BA Contemporary Performance Practice

BA Contemporary Performance Practice Class of 2025

About

My practice is grounded in Les Back’s assertion, which prizes humility, ‘rather than living with certainty in the preservation of ignorance’.

In The Dream I offer my perspective not as truth but as an invitation for my audience to give their incomplete uncertain perspectives. Hopefully fostering a community which radically balances personal ambition and public service.
