Painted Dance

with Sara Downham-Lotto Winter 2017

Expanding expressive language

In collaboration with (tragically now closed) Dance in Devon during their annual Dance in Time celebration at Dartington, Sara ran a series of workshops for intergenerational groups of dancers with broad-ranging backgrounds and levels of experience. Together, they explored dance through painting and painting through dance, expressing themselves firstly through paint on paper responding to music and then through dance, responding to the visual stimuli that was their painting.

‘Everyone really enjoyed the opportunity to uninhibitedly express themselves with new mediums and techniques that complimented each other so well.’
