Tracing the Body

I went to Suffolk School of Arts at University Campus of Suffolk, to demonstrate Tracing the Body with my former lecturer Chrissie Harrington, previously Head of Dance from Bath Spa University, where we met.


We worked inside and outside of the New Arts Centre in Suffolk, drawing back on our memories of 'Tracing the Body' with Chrissie from a few years ago.

The students used charcoal, paint and pens to illustrate what they had seen and exposed what traces of memory had been left within them.

Dear Body, Protein Dance



A witty satire on fixation with body image and body care. Dear Body picks up where B for Body left off, continuing that most private dialogue of all, the one we have with ourselves. Dear Body is played out by six professional Protein dancers and an ensemble cast drawn from the local community.



As a Dance Artist I had the opportunity to work with Luca and the Protein Dancers, as part of the community cast for Bracknell. It was a brilliant experience and if you have the chance to see it or be part of it, do it!!
