Walking: Such an ordinary activity | CHRISTINE QUOIRAUD
WALKING: an ordinary activity, a simple means of transport, of recreation, of performing a pilgrimage, of demonstrating..
For me, WALKING was the choice to practice a physical activity that crossed over with dance. Then, it became an artistic action in itself. The voyage taken in the year 2000 was a question of testing myself through several ways of walking, vagabonding, tracking and tracing. I was able to observe the effects of walking in various environments, the effects of landscape on my body and my thoughts as well as establish a relationship with studio-based dance research (symmetry, relation movement and space, anatomy, endurance, improvisation, relaxation in being in action, gathering images, rythms, appearing and disappearing)..)
