Drawing Breath

This work was developed as part of a project with Ballet Cymru. Developing on from a work from my undergraduate degree entitled “Aftermath”, myself and another artist Stephanie Lowder, worked with dancers from the company to develop large-scale drawings. The dancers brought their company repertoire for pas-de-deux which we then collectively reconfigured in rehearsal to make additional contact with the floor and to make interesting marks. Salt was used due to its reflective properties under stage lights which gave the substance the appearance of floating. The project was reimagined in various spaces and with different dancers around Wales as part of Ballet for All in Newport, Brecon Choreographic and for an exhibition at Kings Street Gallery.
