[04] Perspectives

"Wendy Yu's work is a mesmerizing practice that sits at the intersection of choreography, creative coding, and projection art. Her ability to bring dance into urban media art removes the need to have an interest or knowledge of dance because you can stumble on it."

Ashleigh Kane Glorious Sport

"Wendy Yu's superb video and AV design is totally transportive. The immense projections loom above the storytellers, seeming to dwarf them with the power of their myths."

Caroline Stafford Theatre Reviews Perth

"Wendy Yu's superb video and AV design is totally transportive. There is a giddy, self-aware sense of abandon that disguises a very real and serious examination of beliefs and spiritual philosophy."

Tim Byrne The Guardian

"The visual feast created through projection art transforms spaces into immersive storytelling environments. The work flows seamlessly from reality to dreamscape, creating an experience that is both visually overpowering and emotionally resonant."
