Screensaver series is a kaleidoscopic dance and sound installation, with five dancers and sound by Jamie Forth. The dancer’s constant movement conjures the patterns and continuous activity of a screensaver, referencing images from the natural world, care-taking, computer coding and metamorphosis.

Screensaver series can be viewed in multiple ways; moving, sitting, standing – anyway you choose. Viewed from different perspectives Screensaver series is a mesmerizing and hypnotic work of continuous patterns. 
Neve's work explores play, time and relationships underpinned by an interest in attention. She creates performances and installations for museums, galleries, public spaces and theatres, including: Some times (2023) Sadlers Wells, London commissioned by South East Dance & Dance City, Satelliser: a dance for the gallery (2021) Arnolfini Bristol, BALTIC and Turner Contemporary and storage for future sunsets (2021) commissioned by Scottish Dance Theatre and V&A Dundee. Neve is currently developing FIVES, a new work for young audiences, commissioned by The Place.
