"The Dance-Language Conflict" is a creative research project exploring how dance is and is not used as a "language," ultimately making the argument that it is not one. The original presentation was paired with the results of a movement experiment where participants were asked to attempt to translate dance. This exhibit is composed of a written summary of the presentation, in addition to clips from the original film and digital evidence from the movement experiment.

Victoria Bulick | Remembrance: Research on Body-Memory and Movement Therapy

https://i.ytimg.com/vi/irgF2U8XS6E/default.jpg

"Remembrance" is a piece created navigating body-memory with trauma and movement therapy. After a year long process of research that turned into personal research that turned into a dance film. This involved taking personal trauma and using movement therapy to heal from the past trauma that is held in the body as body-memory. Movement therapy is another form of therapy that does not involve speaking but personal navigation with some guidance. In the film you can see the dance navigating this idea of movement therapy through the art forms of drawing and dance.
