So this week, one of my big discoveries has been the work of Bill Viola, particularly Five Angels for the Millennium (2001), thanks to Anna Williams, my choreographic mentor for this project, and Eckhard Thiemann, who suggested this and other references after our first sharing of work in progress at Moving East last Friday.
Last week I worked with Laure (Bachelot), Marie (Chabert) and Tom (Goodwin) to identify some key features of the movement vocabulary we will be using to devise our new piece, 'Matters of Life and Death', over the coming weeks.
