Sally Smart : The Choreography of Cutting

27 Mar-25 Apr 2015

Overview

Smart has looked closely at dance choreography to see how it might connect to the collage methodologies in her practice: the movement of elements in space, improvisation and rehearsal, and how actions of cutting and assembling might be described and visualized in drawing. The Choreography of Cutting exhibition at Purdy Hicks includes an installation of blackboard walls and chalk notations with cut-out figures, to create a dance, using collage, printmaking, photography and video (and puppetry) to extend the examination of the body, movement and the feminine.
