Dahlia -  dance collaboration with choreographer Letizia Mazzeo and dancer Elsa Petit - was created for The Place Resolutions! 2011.

Dahlia lives alone in a world of her own imagining, of mundane routines punctuated with episodes of wild fantasy. Reading words from a dictionary, her misunderstandings are vividly enacted through a variety of expressive means - dance, music, sound and projection - each time shedding a little light on the character of the lonesome protagonist. Gradually the realities and fantasies begin to blur, the walls of her world heading toward collapse - will Dahlia escape her strange prison or be forever trapped?

Highwalking - screen dance short - was created in collaboration with director Jacob Hobbs and dancer Elsa Petit with vocals recorded by soprano Emma Brown.

Engaging with themes of urban frustration, splendour and joy, the film was shot on the Barbican’s High Walk and premiered at the Circuit Soup film festival 2010.
