The piece is made in collaboration with the dancers of the Dancing with Parkinson’s Programme. Danielle worked with the dancers over the summer of 2020 and collected images, film and words that express the lived experience of COVID-19 lockdown from perspectives of people with Parkinson’s. In addition, a gallery of images and words by the dancers is available alongside this film and can be found earlier on the blog.
