Experimentation. Transformation. Liberation. All of my creations are an ongoing, active process, whether a performance on stage or a movement study in my home, a video, a poem or a photograph. I invite and welcome you to be a participant (rather than a "viewer" or a "critic"). I invite you to question your own perceptions and values as much as mine.

Starting out as part of the audience, doing the first part of the dance facing the same direction as the audience, and slowly migrating away from the chair into the stage space - all of these elements change the way I see you as the performer in the piece. At first I feel that you are still part of the audience, watching and listening to Haggai. This lends a certain amount of empathy and chips away at that impenetrable performer / audience wall.
ReplyDeleteAlso I really appreciate Haggai's attention to your movements. The communication between you two really comes through in the subtle dynamic shifts. It is a slow, human-feeling feedback loop between you.
