Bones and the aging female body

 The body clock is ticking and I'm very grateful to ongoing research with Dr. Rachel Sweeney that incorporates my changing multitemporal body (see www.thefloatingvillage.net)

In September 2024, for an immersive weekend at the Centre for Moving Ecologies, Schumacher College, Devon, UK, 

I contributed to an invited group sharing our embodied knowledge around bones and the ageing female body. 

Joined Rachel with Anna Harvey, dance artist (UK) and Gail Mahon (NI) ceramic artist specialising in bone in her arts and science PhD research. The synergy produced some golden threads and deep deep inquiry.

I shared my interest in minerals through Margaret Roberts book,  Tissue Salts or Healthy Living and my personal research on herbs, all shared through a sense-based, eco-somatic movement-based process.

Rachel and I expanded on the olfactory research that we did on residency in the Auvergne region this April, as part of our Articulating Thresholds process; embodying site-specific research on Douglas Furs and St . Hilliares essential oils and speaking our findings.
