No photos today - just a lot of cleaning, talking about relationship, adding a short solo section for Kally. Sheila stayed for several hours, made excellent suggestions, asked lots of terrific questions.

• What is Steinvor and Kally's relationship? (is it the same throughout the piece?)
  
• How close can they be without touching?
• How far apart and still maintain contact?
• How are Steinvor and Kally related to Dmytro?
• More discussion about vertical and horizontal space, and
• music/dance
• texture and dynamics
• ritual
• focus/intention
  

The piece is growing, gaining depth and life, taking on layers of meaning. The aerial work, the cocoon section, especially, feels more important, less like a series of nice poses. Contrast and changes in dynamics and tempi are the main issues for me at the moment. And then, of course, there is the question of the projected image, which we haven't yet dealt with at all... Perhaps tomorrow?
