Masterwork entry 2
Anne Bogart says, in Now You Act "There is really no need to come up with anything new. Redescribing what you have inherited will engender all the novelty and originality you crave." "In trying we attempt a miracle." "If the motivation for action does not transcend the desire for fame and success the quality of the results will be inferior." "To signal in the face of the ephemeral is an act of heroism." A letter from the artist Mica Sigourney

“Reflections” – Art, Visibility, and “This Movement”

Reflections
The beauty of the artists I’m working with never ceases to amaze me. When I witness them, I witness the uniqueness of each person’s spirit, each person’s love and passion for her or his art, each person’s gift of giving deeply to the birth of this piece. This creative endeavor is bringing to life the histories stored within our bodies. We convey through movement, martial arts, Chinese lion dance, music, text, and video the depth of what cannot be translated
