“TiLTING VERTICALITIES enacts a place of rest and support that is radically mutual. We sense and negotiate our own and one another’s weight and energy, and the ground, to find safe places off the vertical where we can hang out, snuggle, stretch and play. This piece - whether observed as sculpture or experienced from within - unfolds the delicacy, vitality and strength of embodied interconnectivity” — Lizzy Le Quesne, dancer and writer, PhD Somatic Dance | Centre for Dance Research, Coventry University.
“In TiLTING VERTICALITIES movement acquires the most subtle tonalities of a painted work, as discrete bodies produce an almost static, delicate choreography, balancing the acts of holding and letting go.”— Mara Polgovsky, Art Historian and Filmmaker, Birkbeck, University of London.
