Uncovering the experiential and ontological features of solo dance improvisation, this creative collection points towards the ephemeral, ever changing and playful nature of improvising. Reflecting and articulating concepts of improvisation, Trace focuses on notions of choreography, memory, (dis)appearance, nomadism and pleasure. Through a series of correspondence between  a dancer and her practice, alongside training tasks and scores for improvisation, the box contents combine creative acts and poetic writing to enter the discourses of improvisation and documentation.
