These art-labs culminated in the 2005 performance of Dictionary of Atmospheres , staged during the Alice Desert Festival. Drawing upon practice-based research conducted while interning with de Quincey during the development and staging of Dictionary of Atmospheres , Anderson contemplates the way in which moments from the production illustrate the artist’s approach to and articulation of place. Meeting Places offers meditation on the nature of experience as it manifests in serial site-specific art encounters in desert locations.Consciousness, literature & the arts ;40.ChoreographyHistoryChoreographyHistory.792.82Anderson Mary Elizabeth(Assistant professor),40178Bergshoeff Aart JanMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910786524203321Meeting places3839458UNINA
