I am extremely excited to announce that I’ve been awarded CIRCUS SPACE LAB:TIME / Experiments in Circus Award to begin a collaboration with female circus artists on research & development of a new performance piece. The process will start in April 2012 & I can’t wait!

‘Lab:time is Circus Space’s new flagship programme for innovation and experimentation in the Circus Arts funded by The Esmée Fairbairn Foundation. Through Lab:time individual artists and companies are able to secure rehearsal and R&D time in the Creation Studio at Circus Space as well as small but significant amounts of seed funding to support the first stages of exploration.’ http://www.circusspace.co.uk/page/3284/Labtime

I’m equally pleased that the Construction Gallery commissioned me to deliver live art performance Suffragette Slet 2012 – Flocking of Birds for the International Women’s Day the 8th of March.This is as a part of their ‘Social Spaces’ programme which explores ways that we can utilise modern social media in performance making.
