A short snippet into a film that was created by myself and wonderful wonderful people for @thehorsfall and @42ndstreetmcr 10by10 festival and symposium / nice to celebrate such a cool organisation doing really impactful work! This was a really emotional journey to make the film and document not only my experience of grief but everyone who was involved brought their own experience as well which made it into the most beautiful collaborative form of expression. I am so so proud of this process and the outcome, it’s definitely proven to myself that I can do more than I think! Hope you enjoy these 30 seconds :) if anyone wants to see it in person, it’ll be on at Horsfall space over the festival 🤍

This purple object is a-part of a Grief Series. Purple is the everyday weight of grief. This object was born through expressing the heavy, weighted feeling of grief. As if you are operating everyday with a weight on your head, never realising how freely you walked before. Free from the difficulty between wanting to be rested until the weight is gone and not wanting to miss out on anymore life. This object was an experience of recognising this place of grief. Throughout this series I have recognised different emotional states throughout an everyday experience of grieving and expressed them through images of body poses with sewn expressions of emotion. Each object in the series is born from a different emotion. These objects convey the emotion visually as well as inflicting the emotion physically - if you wear the purple object for an extended period of time, the heaviness comes onto the back of the neck and head, forcing a discomforting pain.

Excited to share more of these WONDERFUL AND SILLY workshops on Blurring the Line between Drawing and Body-Based Performance. It became such an engaging way of putting the body directly into the process and working out compositions collectively. If this appeals then let me know as I’d love to put another one on! X

First workshop asking people to get involved with the Still, We Move idea. Everyone got involved and brought a warm up, movement or performance idea to explore - such a nice way to work through an idea collectively 🫶🏻 picture credit: Jane Etive

Butterflies still in stomach but what a fun and petrifying night. So happy to have got to the half way mark with a great set of people! Thanks to everyone for coming and being such an incredible and patient (when the soundscape refused to come on lol) audience! And to everyone who was involved without which it wouldn’t have happened! @ad_rianadoesart @juliet.lm @gargobo
