Projects
  • The Dance Is In Me
    The Dance Is In MeThe Dance Is In Me sees a collaboration between artist Joe Winter, photographer Leah Gordon and myself. It’s a song, a music video, and a series of photographs. The song, produced, written and sung by Joe, the first release from a new body of self-produced work. As well as this, Leah and I have been working on a series of portraits for some time prior. Joe also directed the film with me. I both performed and worked on movement direction.
