DANCING FOR JANE FILM SERIES

Lucy's "Dancing For Jane" film series is an ongoing project intending to accumulate as a visual journey of grief & healing over time. After losing her mother Jane to breast cancer in 2014, Lucy is endeavouring to create an ongoing series of short dance films in tribute to her mum, marking the anniversary of her passing as well as reflecting on Lucy's personal journey with grief and loss. 

"Loss and grief are inevitable parts of the human experience, yet they are topics that are seldom discussed in day to day life. Understandably so, it can be hard to talk about these kinds of things. I find there is not much room for us to grieve & be vulnerable in a world that demands professionalism & perfection daily. But by creating these films and by using my language of dance, I have been able to take some time to reflect on loss, to allow this journey through grief and healing to speak and to share with much more depth and articulation that my words ever could. Creativity has been such a powerful part of my healing process and I am grateful for these opportunities to speak and share through the mediums of movement and film. I am so honoured to have worked alongside the brilliance of Patrick Mazzolo who has been able to bring these concepts to life in such elegant & beautiful ways." - Lucy Doherty
