Young Lungs Dance Excahange is excited to present the 2022 Research Series! Join us as Angela Chalmers, Tessa Rae and Stedroy Crump present their creative research from their time in residence with Young Lungs Dance Exchange.About Angela's ResearchYou Are Her(e) was originally created as a live performance piece exploring the relationship between the perceived imperfections in my body and the more laudable imperfections that one finds in the natural world, and which are described as “natural beauty.” This research will directly influence my next steps in furthering You Are Her(e) - re-envisioning the project as an Augmented Reality app.The pandemic’s forced pause on this work has provided me with time to become curious around the bigger themes and ideas posed in this work – the role of eco-feminism and how colonialism has affected the way we speak about and interact with both land and women’s bodies; how crippling the creation process affects our relationships to each other, to the work and to our self; when colonial land stewardship practices and Indigenous knowledge are presented side by side, how do we, as artmakers, embody this information and allow it to affect our personal storytelling? Finally, I have made a commitment to making work with a low to no carbon footprint. I believe this research is integral to the creation of an interactive app that can engage users without the need for travel, sets and tickets! In this exploration, I also hope to affirm that the physical differences which the fashion and beauty industries try to fix and change are in fact the key important elements in our individual personal beauty. Using my personal story of reclaiming my body as a positive thing through the metaphor of national parks and natural beauty, I want to explore adding the stories, ideas and personal experiences of other female identifying folks to create a collage of personal histories where we are encouraged as a community to embrace our own and others’ unique personal beauty. About Stedroy and Tessa's ResearchStedroy and Tessa find they are connected through their love of Hip Hop dance and culture. Having both been raised in the prairies with vastly different histories, they are excited about this opportunity for creative research as it allows them each to work outside their respective communities. In the spirit of exchange and reciprocity, they intend to create solos for one another with a focus on the role freestyle/improvisation plays in their performance and choreographic practices.Both events (Research Presentations and Endnote Roundtable Discussion on April 10) will be held in-person at The Output - 2nd floor, 100 Arthur St. Masks are mandatory, and space will be limited.Young Lungs Dance Exchange’s Research Series is generously supported by Manitoba Arts Council and Winnipeg Arts Council.For more information, including artist bios, please visit <a href="https://younglungs.ca/artists-in-residence-and-essayists/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">younglungs.ca</a>.
