W.
Is a dancing video art work portraying a pelvic choir of 13 women.
W. forms part of the choreographic project “Archaeology of gesture”.
W.
A place of Origin.
The breath guides attention to the pelvic portal inside. Like a wave, silence reveals movement,
movement becomes dance, moan, chant; revealing the voice of the sacred, of
the animal, of the human, of being Woman.
Becoming body, the belonging, the recalling; freedom from Shame.

Remembering we are complete, singularly making together the plural.
From micro to macro, a Mosaic of life itself.

« There are many names for the power-within, none of which is entirely satisfactory. It can be called “spirit”, … It could be called God, ... I called it immanence... and I called her the Goddess, because the ancient myths, symbols and images of the Goddess such as childbirth, weaving, earth, plant growth, wind, ocean, flame, cloth, moon and milk, all speak to me of the powers of that which connects, nourishes, heals and creates ».
