Folks were interested in part of a previous exploration, where I had Maud on my legs and my torso was cut off in the image. So here's two super quick improvisations with Maud on my legs but showing my whole body. Just to see if it also works with a larger frame (and thus live).

Questions:
1. Is seeing my face distracting? (I didn't have a strong/clear sense of emotion)
2. Does this hold any interesting moments or ideas to develop for you?
3. Any other thoughts?

1. No, though having a clearer emotional intent would be great.
ReplyDelete2. The initial image, with the shape of your arms and body, was interesting. Other than that, the two striking images (as before) were Maud on crotch and Maud on your full body.
3. I found the way Maud kept appearing in pieces on the back wall distracting. Also, while this version was interesting, I did prefer the close-up on the legs. But maybe that could be filmed as its own dance-for-camera work -- that could perhaps then also be integrated into the performance piece.
