At this time I was working on in-situ choreographic writing about extracting systems of movement from body-architecture dialogues. In the context of this research, the body became a visual reference in the landscape; its movements expressing a reading of space and structure. From this process, I was inspired to create images of the body in space and to compose sequences of these.
As the research continued, I invited my friend Tarik, a sculptor and drummer, to interpret and invest a sonic dimension in the process. This interaction of drummer and dancer created a collaborative system in which the body draws space while the percussion increases the volume and depth, revealing hidden dimensions. The dance choreography and percussion are executed independently in a common space-time. An attempt to construct a landscape.
