Date:
November, 2008.

Location:
London.

Rationale:
To make a dance between the temporal body and the eternal spirit.
To express the process of death and grieving.
To make a dance of release.
To make a dance of reverence.
Letting go of mother.

Description:
The performer wears a costume made of bird feathers, black fabric and bells. The movements she makes stem from Japanese Butoh themes: bones, emotional weather patterns, and the dance of life and death in relation to the earth and sky. This dance is a prayer for transformation - from the heaviness of loss towards a faith in the eternal cycles of death/rebirth, evolution and transformation.
