Minataur is a choreographic tableau that explores the idea of head and body separation. Against a background of intense colour, the movement language develops the idea of a body as a series of mutating forms and shapes.

‘a vivid use of significant colour and stunningly expressive arms made me think of Martha Graham (though the vocabulary is different), of expressionist dance and twenties radical experiment’
Mary Brennan, The Glasgow Herald
