Rowland Hill is a Manchester-based artist whose practice is concerned with how language and power operate on and through the body. Her performances often draw on prescribed systems of expression including choreographic regimes, musical tropes and formats for public speech to produce open-ended, speculative alternatives.

Rowland’s long-term project Interesting Times looks to cultural artefacts of 1990s Eurodance for answers to Britain's current relationship with the European Union. Emerging during the end of the Cold War in a moment of pop-cultural optimism, Eurodance ambivalently evokes states of both euphoria and emergency. Hill's project opens up potential spaces for togetherness in an ironic and illuminating reading of post-Brexit Britain. 

Rowland will produce a live visual presentation for an online audience which delves into the history of Eurodance, exploring the intersection between politics and pop-music, followed by an open discussion and a playlist to take home.
