 Along with my family I was in residence at foam for three weeks in October 2013, firstly at Castello Parenzana near the legendary town of Motovun in Istria and then amidst the urban landscape of Brussels. In company with my five month old daughter Florence and together with Maja Kuzmanovic and Nik Gaffney, I investigated ancient and contemporary myths formed from making meaning of natural disaster. My husband Matthew and four year old daughter Miranda contributed to the project remotely from home in the Adelaide Hills in Australia. Miranda shared her understanding of the natural world through creative storytelling and painting and Matthew participated by responding to the concepts emerging at Castello Parenzana through an exploration of sound. Along with my family I was in residence at foam for three weeks in October 2013, firstly at Castello Parenzana near the legendary town of Motovun in Istria and then amidst the urban landscape of Brussels.

 This project has been on slow boil for me for several years. I have struggled to contextualise my research within the contemporary dance or theatre worlds and feel that this project has been finally seeded in suitably fertile ground within the cultural laboratory of foam. I have enjoyed a couple of successful collaborations with Nik Gaffney in Adelaide in the late 90's and with this project it seemed like the right time to pick up the collaborative thread. My husband Matt also collaborated with Nik in the past and was looking forward to participating in the residency in Croatia along with Miranda. However, when state funding fell through our family had to ecomimise and we decided that Florence and I would travel to Europe and Matt and Miranda would contribute to the project remotely via daily skype meetings and email.  This project has been on slow boil for me for several years.
