As a continuation of our work with paper portarits, I along with another student, Oana, wanted to explore different ways of creating scores with our work and using the paper to roll in...
We began by first going over our previous material stimulated by our portraits... We then explored movement on, underneath and around our 'movement portraits'... The most interesting moment in this exploration was lying underneath the paper and using the rips and tears in the paper to reveal parts of the body...
This section is intended to symbolise our own selves, our personality and our own movement interests...
We then moved on to investigate how it would feel to use someone else's portrait... looking at how they move and what areas of the body they are most fond of... we made contact with parts of the portrait to stimulate movement in the others body...
We also wanted to investigate the possibilities of doing the roll in paper as a duet... This made it difficult to roll and explore and we were very dependent on each other, responding to each others moments of stillness as well as the speed of the roll... I think this looked really effective especially when we both emerged from the paper.
This section is intended to symbolise us bringing together our two personalities, combining our movement, experiences and going on an adventure together...
Tearing off pieces of the paper we created a physical representation of our 'hearts'. These we then offered to each other as a symbol of friendship...
A really enjoyable and intriguing experience!!
