Womanspeak

Womanspeak was a collaborative project comprising of four different performances, three including only the performers and the forth inviting the audience to engage. Both myself and collaborator, Elizabeth Loughran had based our works within the understanding of mouth and the flow of language - or more specifically the lack of. Using fluid materials such as cement we acted and reacted gestural suggestions from the other, moving and flowing in the ever hardening material and bodily constraints. Dried salt dough was chewed and spat as our mouths dried and salivated. Arms would raise as if conducting each others flow of breath and hums. Tips of Tongues lingered and pressed with strangers.
