In the mid 1990's Deborah Hay's work took a new turn. From her
early experiments with untrained dancers, and after a decade of
focusing on solo work, the choreographer began to explore new
grounds of choreographic notation and transmission by working with
experienced performers and choreographers. Using the Sky: a dance
follows a similar path as Hay's previous books-Lamb at the Altar
and My Body the Buddhist-by exploring her unrelenting quest for
ways to both define and rethink her choreographic imagery through a
broad range of alternately intimate, descriptive, poetic,
analytical and often playful engagement with language and writing.
This book is a reflection on the experiments that Hay set up for
herself and her collaborators, and the ideas she discovered while
choreographing four dances, If I Sing to You (2008), No Time to Fly
(2010), A Lecture on the Performance of Beauty (2003), and the solo
My Choreographed Body (2014). The works are revisited by unfolding
a trove of notes and journal entries, resulting in a dance score in
its own right, and providing an insight into Hay's extensive legacy
and her profound influence on the current conversations in
contemporary performance arts.
