Abstract
This article is based on a movement practice concerned with the study of objects that are owned, inherited, passed on or lost. Through a choreographic lens, it looks at objects that speak to a cultural and colonial heritage, embodying critical questions of our attachment to ‘belongings’, to ‘belonging’ and to place. How do these objects sit within our bodies? Do they affect the way we carry our physical selves? What are the histories that we inherit together with things? And what of ourselves do we transfer onto the things that surround us. This paper maps a particular choreographic process between 2020 and 2022 passing through the period of the pandemic to look at the role of a movement practice in this transmission.
期刊介绍：
Choreographic Practices operates from the principle that dance embodies ideas and can be productively enlivened when considered as a mode of critical and creative discourse. This double-blind peer-reviewed journal provides a platform for sharing choreographic practices, critical inquiry and debate. Placing an emphasis on processes and practices over products, this journal seeks to engender dynamic relationships between theory and practice, choreographer and scholar, so that these distinctions may be shifted and traversed. Choreographic Practices will encompass a wide range of methodologies and critical perspectives such that interdisciplinary processes in performance can be understood as they intersect with other territories in the arts and beyond (for example, cultural studies, psychology, phenomenology, geography, philosophy and economics). In this way, the journal will open up the nature and scope of dance practice as research and draw together diverse bodies of knowledge and ways of knowing to illuminate an emerging and vibrant research area.
