Hilary has an interest in facilitating an investigation of our roles as active, vital participants in dance and how we investigate our own personal artistry to deepen our interpretive skills. She is interested in the interplay between our physical and emotional world, and how it is in constant poetic partnership.The integration of this as performer and interpreters of dance is always present, and gives us a world to access as an artist. Finding palpable ways to access this, is part of that process that she is interested in exploring. Engaging in dance with full physical, emotional, and artistic immersion, with honesty and self reflection, we will reckon our physical and emotional worlds to deepen into the rigor of process and performance.
