Invitation to Begin (Again)
Conversational Score for Crossing Borders, London 2018
Collaboration with Fiona WrightAn invitation from Independent Dance to contribute to Crossing Borders – a recurring series of curated dialogues between artists working with or in connection to choreography, at Siobhan Davies Studios, London.
Invitation to Begin (Again) explores art-making as forms of resistance and resilience; constraint as a creative catalyst.
How to begin? Or begin again? How to work with just the right amount of freedom from what has come before and what may well come after? How to take time and timing as material to work with, how to practice without expectation, to find clarity within uncertainty? Invitation to Begin (Again), roams across these ideas via the form of an improvised conversation in response to a score of words.
“Everything we do is done by invitation. That invitation comes either from oneself or another person.”
