What Does It Mean To Have A Body?: Sara Wookey

from Ultradilute Podcast · host sara wookey, yvonne rainer

What does it mean to have a body that moves in three dimensional space in our current time? How do cultural institutions better relate to the public in a way that takes into consideration the massage changes in technology over the last three years? Can relating to the other than human beings help us learn how to be better partners to the planet? These are the types of questions London-based choreographer and dancer Sara Wookey dives into. She is one of the most interesting thinkers on the relationship of bodies and material space and how post-modern dance can open windows into more rational ways of understanding our bodies in space and, as she always points out, time.As she says, "we look back on the effects of the pandemic on the way that we choreograph ourselves in social interactions since the pandemic. We've had to raise our awareness of our three dimensional space." These days she is spending a lot of her time helping museums and other cultural organizations think through how they can take a more creative approach to engaging publics that are re-thinking their relationship to the material in the post-covid age.I spoke to Sara last fall so some time has passed and you'll notice our references to the season feel anomalous, unless you're in the southern hemisphere. But I'm glad that's the case because everything is shifting so quickly at the moment, it is sometimes helpful to get a snapshot of where things were at even just 5 months ago in order to gain some footing as to where we are now.  Roddy Schrock, CHP, provides 100% online homeopathic care for creative people, entrepreneurs, and leaders.

I've known Sara Wookey since we both lived in the Netherlands when I was working in creating music for dance, collaborating with our mutual friend Seamus Cater. Her career progressed in very exciting ways, eventually becoming a student of the seminal figure in dance, Yvonne Rainer and is a certified teacher of Rainer’s seminal dance work “Trio A” (1966) and other repertoire. She received her Phd. from Coventry University in England where her research looked at dance in the museum as relation and social-spatial practice contributing to institutional change and a model for public spaces post-Covid. She is now based in Cambridgeshire, England and works as dancer/choreographer, researcher and consultant. And she's also a square dance caller.
