Body Stories by Lauren 2/10/12


During the process of making the solo Lauren told us that she had investigated child memories and the emotions from these events and questioned what these emotions were. She also demonstrated during the talk at the end of her piece how she used the phases from her childhood to influence the movement, which I found fascinating to watch and learn about it is similar to what I am interested in for my own choreography. I noticed throughout the piece that I was making metal notes on my dislikes and likes about the piece but not only about the piece its self, the way she has choreographically structured her piece. Repetition is something that I have seen in a couple of different works and found really strong and is something I would like to investigate further. As I am constantly thinking about how different pieces influence my own practice I find it hard to follow the piece for itself therefore I lose the interested to know what the piece is about. Although I think this is a good thing as before I always thought you had to know what the piece was about straight away for the piece to work, however I now enjoy the piece regardless.
