Once walked, twice talked...

Once walked, twice talked…

“When walking as opposed to running one of the feet is always in contact with the ground”.

As Ntando Cele I associate the ground with images of despair, desperation, grief and the potential for horizontal madness. I have the choice to walk over, along or in the ground. The performance;

Once walked, twice talked is an invitation to you the observer to take off your shoes and experience the ground, this is a story of two strangers; through sound and actions compete in the game of grief.

CYPHER SESSION VIDEO

“If my body were to be a drawn like a map, with borders, rivers and deserts; then through self composed sound, song, movement and spoken word; a knowledgeable person can navigate across the land recognizing the impressions of the future, past, present.”
Ntando Cele

Cypher Session is inspired by Songlines of the Indigenous Australians and the need to create a space filled with memories that collide / interact creating dialogue. Through songs, sounds and movement the audience will interpret
different stories.

This was a presentation of a work in progress to get feedback from collegues and practitioners. DASARTS 09/06/10.
