It is a great honor to offer this article as a tribute to the enduring impact of Sylvia Glasser’s breakthrough accomplishments in promoting dance education and performance in the South African context. This article is based upon interviews with Sylvia, who currently lives in Sydney, Australia, as well as some of her colleagues and former students. In addition, it draws upon writings, websites, and articles that describe her work. I am struck by the humility of this extraordinary and numinous person who has influenced several generations of performers, students, educators, and dancers. She has challenged and broken down stereotypes and barriers during the apartheid years in South Africa and has irrevocably changed the landscape of South African dance with her introduction of the methodology of Afro-Fusion into the dance world beginning in the late 1970s. As the founder of the Moving into Dance Mophatong (MID) Training Program and Dance Company, Sylvia was the CEO, the fundraiser, the choreographer, and the driving force behind this momentous accomplishment. Along the way, she gathered and trained a group of accomplished dancers, educators, administrators, and choreographers. The work of MID continues and remains a living and iconic force in contemporary dance in South Africa today.
我非常荣幸地发表这篇文章，以表彰西尔维娅·格拉瑟在促进南非舞蹈教育和表演方面取得的突破性成就所产生的持久影响。本文基于对Sylvia的采访，Sylvia目前居住在澳大利亚悉尼，以及她的一些同事和前学生。此外，它还借鉴了描述她的作品的著作、网站和文章。我被这位非凡而神秘的人的谦逊所打动，他影响了几代表演者、学生、教育工作者和舞者。她在南非种族隔离时期挑战并打破了刻板印象和障碍，并从20世纪70年代末开始将非洲融合的方法引入舞蹈界，不可逆转地改变了南非舞蹈的面貌。作为Moving into Dance Mophatong（MID）培训项目和舞蹈公司的创始人，Sylvia是首席执行官、筹款人、编舞家，也是这一重大成就背后的推动力。一路上，她聚集并培训了一群有成就的舞者、教育工作者、行政人员和编舞家。MID的工作仍在继续，至今仍是南非当代舞蹈中一股活生生的标志性力量。

This article presents an artistic inquiry among three students during an art-based research course in the art therapy master’s program at Ono Academy, Israel. Their collaboration focused on composing inquiry modes that could explore paternal representations of violent men that arise in artmaking with clay. Three fathers who took part in an abuse-prevention art therapy group, their group facilitator as a witness, and the three student-researchers participated in the project. The paper focuses on the research method that comprised artmaking with clay, a questionnaire, observations, and discussions. Two main themes arose within the study: coexisting contrasts and false perfection as well as a gained sense of success and assurance that could project onto their perceptions of parenting. The project highlights the significance of artmaking with clay as a research tool and as a potential prophylactic treatment for preventing domestic violence.

This article aims to explore the potential of dance/movement therapy (DMT) and creativity in supporting patients with chronic pelvic pain. It investigates the impact of a non-judgmental environment on the development of coping and self-compassion strategies; the potential of using DMT’s tools and art in general to explore, in a safe and creative container, one’s relationship with the disease and the meaning it has taken on in one’s personal history and the rediscovery of one’s psycho-bodily resources to listen to and actively dialogue with one’s pain. This article is based on a study conducted in two therapeutic groups of four women each. As the project was born during the COVID-19 pandemic, the meetings were conducted online and lasted approximately 2 years.

Selective mutism (SM) is a disorder originating in anxiety in which a child between the ages of 3 and 5 years does not speak at school but speaks at home. This study used art-based research with phenomenological qualitative inquiry to understand the perspectives of professionals in the Israeli school system who work with children diagnosed with SM. The researcher facilitated a professional workshop for 13 participants to broaden their knowledge and investigate their opinions. They learned about the disorder and created artwork illustrating their feelings about working with these children. Outcomes showed that participants felt isolated and alone, and the group setting held a space for them to better understand how to work with children with SM.

Since the beginning of the 21st century, there is a boom of popular participation in psychotherapy and training in urban China, which has attracted the attention of anthropologists who called this phenomenon a “psycho-boom” or “psy fever.” This article is a review of anthropological studies on this issue and discusses how psychotherapeutic knowledge and practice with western origin has been indigenized by Chinese psychotherapists as well as the emergence of a new form of self in this psycho-boom. Critical anthropologists tend to emphasize the connection between this psy fever and governmentality. This article shows the insights and blind spots of this perspective, calling for attention to the heterogeneity and agency of participants in this psy fever as well as the potentiality of psychotherapy as both expression and intervention for sufferings in the context of drastic social transformation.

In this article, “3P” stands for possibility, plausibility, and probability, which indicate the progressive effects of prediction in research results. Advocating this 3P distinction, the author tries to showcase research as a spectrum of academic endeavor with varied objectives of prediction in research finding, on which arts-based research (ABR) bases its credibility on the possibilities it opens, apart from its aesthetic features. To open up possibilities through artistic endeavor, this author’s definition of ABR is a radical approach of diminishing knowledge processes that challenges the stereotypical norm that credible research is an accumulative and systematic knowledge-increasing process, as in the case of qualitative and quantitative research that takes plausibility or probability as its purpose. Through a critical review of the science history and by performing ABR, the author argues that ABR should be taken as a credible research method as long as it creates unprecedented possibility that is significant to human welfare and the progression of knowledge. It is also argued that, despite meeting the established criteria for credible research, a set of functional criteria for ABR as a methodology in its own right should be generated out of this awareness of 3P, in respect with the research purpose and matched methods.

This article analyzes the creative process of a ballroom dance duet piece titled Glowing Ocean using the perspective of the Laban/Bartenieff Movement System (LBMS). The article examines the creative background of Glowing Ocean and clarifies the creative intention of the work. Furthermore, it attempts to express the musical and emotional atmosphere of the piece and attempts to translate this into an aesthetic image. While describing what cannot be expressed with words in dance, this article analyzes how dance conveys meaning through metaphors. This article tries to name the qualities of that which are hard to describe, and this contributes to the meaning and value of this paper.
