The biggest ode to this absolute beauty of a track (Isn’t It A Pity by the only Nina Simone). It strikes such the cord in me, the shared yearn for love and care. A reminder that pain is power, vulnerability is strength. It feels quite truthful with the state of our world. What a gift dance is, here is me moving through these feelings when no structure, explanation or score could possibly illustrate them.
Big thank you to @lucyguerininc for the space, this was a small part of my Make A Start Residency. Feeling all the vulnerable and fucking exciting feelings with beginning my first solo work. Let’s get it💋
