Working as a Figure Model is in-keeping with
my philosophy of the Self as medium for art. Here, the meaning is two-fold as
my body serves as a medium in form to replicate in the artist’s medium – also
as medium for “living sculpture”.

My studio practice here takes place at
Weaverville Yoga, where I teach a weekly Ballet class. I work in the studio
late at night when all is quiet.
I have been re-visiting the gestures of my inter-actions with nature materials to develop them into choreographic motifs for body & voice. This is now preparation for performance, where the motifs generated can become a palate of “ingredients” for in-the-moment composition.

As well as developing motifs from nature
material inter-actions, I have been isolating specific physical vocal gestures
