Specializing in the field of contemporary and classical Indian dance Liz is currently an associate director at QL2 Centre for Youth Dance in Canberra, Australia.
Matthew Morris who continues to work with Feargus O’Conchur and Mikel Aristegui in Dublin, Spain and Berlin has just finished touring Switzerland with “Hollwood Angst” directed by Kylie Walters. In residence under Blank Canvas 2009 he began developing his own working project and held two fantastic professional dance classes.
Carlos Cortes engaged with local dancers and musicians as part of his continuous investigation into how movement can be a liberating force, and can help to engage with their physical environment, and how audience and performers can become equally involved in dynamics that change the way space is perceived and or inhabited.
