Sitting/Walking/Practice: Reflections on a Woman’s creative process

This article is a “musing on the processes of practice-as research in performance and screen when ‘self’ is the source of creative inspiration” and is a poetic attempt to give form, in word and image, to creative process. The writing is informed by and emerges out of experiences of Authentic Movement, Focusing, Jungian dreamwork, walking and photography. The aim is to articulate something of my creative processes when engaged in an explicitly subjective practice-led research process. This article embraces the imaginal and the somatic in an attempt to bring together symbolic material generated from a uniquely woman’s experience.
