Ballywalter Seniors Group
Title of Work: Diamonds are Forever
Arts Care Project Artist: Charmaine McMeekin
Art Form: Dance
Our dance piece invites each individual to shine their inner light bright and beautiful, through creative dance we explored how our life experiences mould and make us who we are today. Just as a diamond is formed, so are we and through dance this wonderful group of people looked at the life they have lived and the people they have become. In their solos and duets they danced their inner brightness, exploring words that highlighted who they are as stimulus.
This piece is a true expression of each individual, and how, as a group they form a glorious bright diamond in their community, reaching out, connecting and supporting each other. What a joy to see them shine bright like a diamond, letting their inner brightness radiate for all to see.
Many thanks to the amazing participants - Sandra, Ruth-Anne, Wilma, Billy, Mary, Catrina, Phyllis, Brenda, Sheilagh & Gillian.
