The main aim underlying my proposal is to develop a choreography to induce the sense of a reverse vertigo – a falling backwards, gazing upwards; following the theme of love from last major solo, Rasa Sayang.
‘Falling’ within the realms of love suggest embodied psychophysical and emotional states. The choreographic approach takes my contemporary trance praxis as a foundation to the concept of reverse vertigo, to a second sense of falling, levitation, suspension, ascension and decent.
The project will involve a visual artist as designer, Shaun Duggan, musician, Reuben Lewis and long-term dance collaborator, Brendan O’Connor.
