During the ‘Body and Camera’ workshop in the Dance Ireland studios at Foley Street in Dublin, we began developping a new installation, Hyacinth, working with a constant dialogue between the movements and formations of the dancers on the stage and the symmetric abstactions derived from them on screen. We explored simple double play with the dancers - one in the present, the other in variable delay - and later worked with the dancers inventing bodily formations that conjure an almost abstact onscreen image evolving somewhere between a rorschach test and a flower pattern.
