The poet Francis Boua join me, dancer Jo Dyer and photographer Hugh Pryor at the Old Fire Station dance studio in Oxford on Friday 19 January 2024 for a dance and poetry workshop. Here’s a film clip from it. And yes, it took me more than a year to obtain the permissions for the use of the film so I might create this post!
Loneliness
Poet Francis Boua recited his poem ‘Loneliness’ while I and Jo Dyer use our improvisational and dance skills from contact improvisation to create this performance. Thanks to Hugh Pryor for filming.
Photographs
The photograph at the head of this article was shot on expired colour 35mm film using a Minolta X-700 camera. A set of photos from the workshop can be seen here (Google drive). Thanks to photographer Hugh Pryor.
