Writing in Response – Bristol
Togetherness: writing in response to a workshop with Jo Fong - by Sian Goldby
GATHER UP
We invited dance artist Sian Goldby to create a writing in response to the workshop with choreographer Jo Fong which we hosted on Saturday 30th March at Circomedia in Bristol. Drawing from her experience of participating in the workshop and afternoon talk, and writing from her dance practice Sian has produced this work that expresses and articulates the shared movements that took place during the workshop and have carried out into our individual dancing. In sharing about her current writing practice, Sian writes, 'I'm currently very interested in ways that writing can visually stimulate and evoke the physical experience that I wanted to share from being a workshop participant.'

Her practice has been informed by notions of inclusivity, participation and is about being present, this moment, communication, listening, face to face encounters and the idea of forming community.
