Raw documentation from an artistic practice sharing that took place at norrdans at the end of 2022.
Here I am performing my practice which dealt with the constant attempt of opening up my dancing archive and letting it spill out unapologetically. I strive to allow for a dance that is fuelled by desire, that embraces habits and that experiences the “now”. The music that I am dancing to is made by the incredible artist Arca who has been and continues to be a huge inspiration.

📍 MDT
Tonight we premiere La Ronde.
Jump into the stream of continuous movement. Let your intelligent body take care of the dance. Once you’re in, notice the moments of desire emerge and act on them. Bring some fire to the moment. Drive it and then let it go. Work with and through your habits to end up somewhere unknown.
Say yes to the awkward.
Say yes to the sublime.
Say yes to the quiet.
There’s no need to comment on or excuse the dance. It is what it is and will be a lot if you invest in it. You’re doing great.

Extracts from an artistic practice sharing at @norrdans in 2021 where I performed an improvisation practice consisting of attempts to source material from the pleasure of moving to electro-acoustic music which on this occasion resulted in moments like these.
