By Wendy Houstoun (pp. 31-38)
“I learnt very early on in dance training that how I feel is not necessarily how I look,
and the journey through movement and performance practices has been
a process of aligning my own internal perception
with external commentaries”
(Wendy Houstoun, p.34)
Some body (me) | Somebody/nobody observed (performance) |
No body (dancer) | “at risk” (in character) |
Ageing body (The body has imprints of moves running around it that reside in another era). |
