last technique class term 1

Last Thursday before the Vivas we had a last technique class with the amazing professor Sarah.
We had the chance to think and work compositionally so we were initiated in the "making process" and I worked with Fiona. The phrase changing just came so easy and so natural!!!
Thanks Fiona for wonderfull connections!

ipp2 solo

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QsTBLfgQI7Q

I have used this video as a resource for my solo, but this time I have a totally different vision over it. I am more interested of the dresse's journey, the way it moves and what parts of the body covers or shows. The way it folds and unfolds, the continuous movement. I found difficult to follow this material's jouney, but I watched it many many times and every time I notice something different.
What do you think? ( ignore the sound, the dancers, the audience and just follow the dress...)

Ipp2 solo work

Within this solo I chose to work with light source, memories, feelings and meanings.
There is a song that hides lots of secrets and every time I listen to it feel like I open the "feeling box" and all my past experience invade my whole being...

My object will be a red and long Pina Bausch Dress, that symbolyse feminism and it is as well full of memories and feelings...

My light source will be a few candles, the natural fire, that also have different meanings and it is used in a variety of contexts.

performance projects

This module was a very "full" one , research, moving, performing, reflecting, working on my own, working in a group, etc...
   Steps...

• artists research-finding out who we are working with
• postcards and scores work-physical and senzorial awareness before the intesives
• intensives- working with the choreographer
• feedback from katye
• company rehearsals
• observing the choreographer performing
• performance day
• reflections after the performance over the whole process
• 2nd role

projection

reflections...

I am reading now some Installation Art books and I found really ispiring art works, that give bits of ideas for my little perf. on Wednesday. I fell drawn by the projection as well as installation.
Last summer I had horrible head pains and my brother asked me to go to the clinique where he works and to do a RMI. The strong pains made my way to the hospital and my brother leaded my investigation.
I even have a little 'movie' with my skull scan and the doctors said that there was no problem with my skull. They still can't explain my pains, but I have decided to start my own investigation, as I have the scan.

I can even see the sketch of a performance : all my pains + my fear + my thoughts + the massive machine and myself inside of it + the horrible noise inside of it + projecting images of my skull scan on a wall + my body into the space ...

There might be some things that I can use for my piece.
