THROUGH HER BREATH
2-25 MARCH 2023
MARS GALLERY
7 JAMES ST, WINDSOR
MELBOURNE

 

Through Her Breath celebrates ancestral breath placing women, whose bodies are the source of our first breaths, as the inscriber of embodied legacies of past and present. Inspired by the feminist philosophy of Luce Irigaray, it embraces the idea that women are the thread, custodians and channel for an archive of embodied memories.  

 

This comes at a time of loss of my own mother to whom I am eternally grateful to for the air she breathed for me.  

 

The sharing of air with choreographer Carol Brown in a deeply layered collaboration reframed a genealogy of breath-inspired movement transmitted through the teachings of expressionist modern dance dancer Gertrude Bodenwieser (b. Vienna 1890 d. Sydney 1959) and the Bess Mensendieck system. Through Her Breath is my awakening to deeper thought and appreciation of woman, memory and community, expressed through the layering of photography, dance and fashion through a feminine lens.
