Artist in Residence PICA

As Artist in Residence at PICA from December 2024 to January 2025, I will draw on my extensive embodied and theoretical knowledge to collate and create scores for dancing and making: a resource for dancers and artists interested in embodied performance making and an introduction to somatic explorations for the general public. My creative process includes movement, touch, writing, listening and conversation. The scores and provocations will be realised through somatic attunement, connecting the interiority of studio practice with a deep listening to the natural and built environments.  The materiality of the work emerges from this attention to inner and outer worlds, inviting an intimacy with the body and place.

Bundanon Residency

I was offered a Bundanon residency in April 2023. It was fabulous to have two weeks to immerse myself in the extraordinary creative and historical environment of Bundanon.

Through a practice of embodied attunement, my process attempts to break the spell of dominant narratives and allow a re-enchantment of place. Attunement explores the connection of feeling between people and place, animated by the presence and experience of being alive to the world. The residency gave me the opportunity to generate performance scores whilst having the time to rejoice in the ‘eros’ of making in place surrounded by other focused artists. The entwinement of colonial, planetary and personal/artistic histories offered me a unique time of creative reflection: This ancient country – our presence here now – how to be here and make together.
