ITEM 12: Vital Gestures -- Signs in Motion: a dialogue between Sarie Mairs Slee and Scott Thurston

Thurston, Scott Douglas; Slee, Sarie Mairs

Abstract

This creative conversation involves a dialogue between poet Scott Thurston and Sarie Mairs Slee, a choreographer and physical performer. The concept of gesture holds a rich resonance for their collaborative work and this essay captures conversation about their current explorations, the longer-term drivers for their collaboration and the role of gesture therein.
Published in Mantis, Issue 17 (April 2017) -- a postgraduate magazine based at Stanford University, USA -- for a special section of essays on gesture, featuring Carrie Noland and others.
