https://vimeo.com/373845963 "the amount of time it (the work) sits in activated states in front of other humans"Holly Durant Holly Durant is an artist who crafts sites for performance with choreography to evoke senses of pleasure and empowerment. Her works consistently gather communities and provide platforms for interrogating how bodies occupy and negotiate space.  By exploring ideas of embodiment, co-presence and ‘worlding,’ her inhabited installations blur the boundaries between subject and environment, between private and public experience. Layered sensorial environments and disobedient gestures transform the body, questioning the concept of the ‘blank’ body onto which narratives and meaning are projected. These constructed worlds centre fluid arrangements and encounters, rather than self-contained or fixed symbols and scenarios, Durant confronts and negotiates structural obstacles with the power of the body. showssharing spacewhere one's body might "fit"experimental queer venues and eventstalking and thinking and process and academiathe job of the artistfem construct links: https://vimeo.com/hollyduranthttps://rmitart.com/projects/holly-duranthttps://new-adventures.net/profile/holly-durant#overviewhttps://www.instagram.com/hollyduranthttp://tanzabend.com.auhttps://www.beat.com.au/holly-durant-announces-dance-death-at-grant-street/https://www.facebook.com/hollyteganduranthttps://vimeo.com/374034693
