“Dance and Architecture have much in common. Both are concerned with practices of space. For a dancer the act of choreography as a writing of place occurs through the unfolding of spatial dimensions through gesture and embodied movement. For the architect space is the medium through which form emerges and habitation is constructed. For both, the first space we experience is the space of the body.” – Carol Brown, contemporary (London-based) choreographer, explores overlaps between architecture and choreography through site specific work often involving close collaborations with architects.
