I have done aerial before with Movement of the Human in a production called Hurihuri, which featured at the Commonwealth Games Festival on the Gold Coast, Australia, in 2018.
What made you want to try this style of performance?
I’m always seeking new mysteries in movement and dance and when the opportunity arose I seized the moment.
How does it feel when you’re hoisted up into the air?
A sense of stillness and weightlessness in the midst of chaos, and to be in the air where the birds live, feels quite special and honourable.
Why should people come see your performance?
It’s in our capacity to share and touch the heart of another. Come and be still and let two souls in a state of balance and poise suspended in the air and cloaked with wholehearted attention, share dance within the air. You and us share.
Have members of the disabled community been inspired by your work?
Authentic attentiveness is how the disabled community come experience "The Air Between Us", and with them being there inspires me also to perform at my best. The reciprocity of aspiration.
What is some of the feedback you have received for the production?
All of the feedback is from the heart and well respected, and I respond with deep listening. Tears of joy are shed throughout "The Air Between Us" and the sensitivity and the presence of transformation can be felt. I bow my head to all who come share "The Air Between Us" with Chloe Loftus and me.
