A shape is a sound : reflections on the body and language

This thesis examines the practice and projects of the author as both an actor and an artist as an ongoing investigation into the relationship between the body and language, between movement, line, shape, and voice. By weaving together diverse projects from my graduate career that explore voice and language as physical, material processes with episodes from my work as an actor, it investigates translation -- between forms, bodies, languages, and materials -- as a method of creation, a path of invention.
