JNK in 6 panels, was developed out of an artist residency with the Centre for Projection Art in 2020. The work takes inspiration from the academic writings of Anne McDonald and Andre Lepecki who wrote that dance embodies the experience of morning through its ephemeral nature. In this sense the design of this work represents a capturing of the dance that has past. JNK in 6 panels is presented as part of the Body-Cities program as curated by Centre Of Projection Art artistic director Priya Namana for FRAME: a biennial of dance 2023, and can be seen on the 20, 21, 22, 23, 26 March, 4.00 pm – 5.00 pm on the Bunjil Place Outdoor Screen.
