I’m grateful to be a dancer, with this opportunity to process emotions through my body, to continue to learn more about myself and others through art-making. Our second day of filming culminated in the adrenaline rush of walking into the chilly waters of the Bay. I had prepared for and anticipated the cold, the unknowns of the depth and texture of the ground below my increasingly weightless feet. What I did not anticipate was the peace, the steady strength of forward motion I would find, the sense of ritual, the power of emerging, and then, numb to the cold, the urge to twirl, hair flinging, shedding droplets of water from my body like scales, like skin, like armor.
When I described the visual images and storyline that came to me for her song Year Gone By, Katie said it gave her chills and she was 100% onboard with bringing it to life. Cinematographer Sara St Martin Lynne joined the team as our third co-director and with editor Steve Holloway, stylist Margaret Bolton Grace, and loads of generous supportive friends, in February we made the whole thing in basically two weeks.
Last November Katie proposed, “If you could make a video for any song on my Gift Horse album, which song would it be?” (!!)
