Bodies of Water is a work in progress created primarily as a doctoral thesis piece for the Practice as Research emphasis of the Performance Studies Program at University of California, Davis. Please, click on the blog address shown above. As you move through the sections of the blog Bodies of Water, you will encounter three major narratives. The first is entitled Bodies of Water in the Performance Space, which describes how the physical environment contributes to the development of the performance process. Following this narrative is a series of pictures illustrating the process. The second narrative entitled Critical Evaluation describes the performance as a displacement ritual. This is also followed by a series of pictures illustrating the actual performance. The third narrative entitled Bodies of Water: Journal, describes in detail processes, outcomes, and feelings involved in this creative collaboration between performer JorgeLuis Morejon and director Nitza Tenenblatt.
