Description Children?s bellies, wrinkled hands, curved backs, big feet and noses are works of art. The body is fascinating and beautiful, no matter who you are.
This work is based on teenagers? thoughts and feelings surrounding their bodies. Each person interviewed had incredibly powerful images about what it feels like to be in their bodies. The students? descriptions and images of themselves were used to generate all the movement, choreographic structures and images within the words.
