keening

Creating the voice around the missing shape of somebody else's body was extraordinary. I absolutely loved this and found it ‘freeing’ and deeply interesting- it evoked, for me, the sensation of keening. The sound that emerged was instinctual and not pre-conceived and a different sound sometimes came out depending on who had just been there and what part of the body they had been holding onto. And I found then when somebody replaced the missing body with their own- my sound changed. The images created with everyone doing this exercise was gorgeous.
