Loved and fully cherished this opportunity to work with some amazing minds and beautiful movers. In collaboration with Designer Louis Mayhew, the team wanted to create a Fashion Film that encapsulated the Shortcuts Vol.1 ethos of - renew, reset, revive and refashion. I can’t thank the collaborators enough and watch out for Louis’ SS24 Collection. Designers Statement: “Shortcuts’, was formed whilst working as a painter and decorator; looking at how my colleagues and I were hacking and modifying our clothing. I personally defined shortcuts as hacks or modifications done to clothing to enhance it in terms of functionality, comfortability, aesthetics or longevity.” Manifesto: “Integrity, Innovation, Slow and Local. This is perpetuated throughout my collection in ways including - sourcing all my fabric from a local recycling initiative, creating a zero-waste pattern-cutting technique derived from photogrammetry and spending on average less than £2 per garment on material costs.” CATS & CREW Designer: @mayhew.36 Director: @margoroe DOP: @bartbazaz B Cam: @jakebrynduncan Choreographer: @laurenellenjenkins Composer: @are_eye_pea Producers: @bartbazaz @margo.roe Edit: @bartbazaz Dance Artist: @silas.gc @almakremnitzer @naomi468 @iyanahgordon @luella_rebbeck @daniel.sutton_ @orsonbeann

Special thanks to @daniel.sutton__ and @philykeegz for the endless hard work and for creating something so powerful. You absolutely blew the roof off the place. Collaboration is easy when you’re working with the best.

Little throw back to the beginnings of my creation, oh how so much has changed, if you’re free on the 14th of December (this Sunday) I have a short performance at @artotellondonhoxton link is in my bio Join acclaimed ceramicist @shanekeeling_artist for a live, visceral, and unrepeatable performance artwork. In collaboration with renowned classical musician @philykeegz and rising contemporary dancer @daniel.sutton__ , Keeling presents a daring exploration of contemporary masculinity and its entanglement with the online world-told through a lens of radical vulnerability. Blending dance, live music, poetry, and clay, this piece pushes the boundaries of craft and performance. Keeling uses the physicality of clay and the immediacy of movement to challenge audiences’ assumptions, revealing the deeply human stories embedded in the act of making. Raw, captivating, and emotionally charged, this is performance art with heart- a one-time event designed to move, provoke, and transform /e/the-shape-of-being-a-live-performance-by-shane-keeling-tickets-1975319622164?aff=ebdssbdestsearch #contempoarydance #dance #danceimprovisation #flow #listenthenmove #choreograph #gowiththwflow #relaxandmove #dancing #inthestudio
