OUT OF BALANCE: A YEAR OF DIALOGUE WITH KIRA O’REILLY TOWARD A MOVEMENT PRACTICE

View through CrossRef
Frantic clockwork arms swing rigid, in arcs, below your shoulder, always less than 180°. It’s futile searching for a centre of balance, a place to balance the heels that are jerked up out of the floor on top of impossibly bent knees. The balls of your feet stab forwards and backwards along tracks etched out by a mean logic of the body in physical crisis. Fast concentration dips with your face, as torso, unyielding, grasping for stability, see-saws over your hips.
