Play

There is something magical as an adult to find people one can play with; to feel safe enough to be fully engaged and present and embodied; to be spontaneous and improvisational; to be silly and serious; to try things out; to be surprised and to make mistakes. In the play space everything is allowed and accepted as part of the play. Being witnessed and witnessing is a key aspect when video and photographs come into the play. One can be witnessed and witness, and on viewing the videos and photos can witness oneself and make sense of the choices made and fall in love with one’s own movement as a true expression of oneself in that moment. The relationship to one’s play mates is full of sensitive attunement and stimulation for new possibilities and creative sympoeisis. When play occurs in nature all the elements of nature become partners in the play – wind, sky, clouds, trees, grass, sand, rock.
