Transglobal duets : 2006/07

A movement duet each month in the same moment from different sides of the world. Over 30 minutes an improvisation develops in response to each environment as well as images/movements/presences that arise from awareness of each other being (t)here. Each month we choose a different location which will have similarities in atmosphere or form.

Transglobal Duets is the continuation of movement explorations together that started in 2000 to do with communication, environment and place.

In each place that Miriam visits she collaborates with different photographers and videographers. The sourcing of suitable artists and the resulting dialogues and recording of the duets are an engaging process.

We are grateful for the many artists that are partners in this project and the support from organisations in developing the project so far including: New Works Festival, Vancouver and Earthdance Centre for Contact Improvisation, Mass, USA.

To contact the documenting artists please see details in annotations for each month
