Tamsin:

"It was interesting to discover what spaces we have both been drawn to during this project; Sarah to nature-made spaces and natural materials, and I to person-made spaces and hard, sharp materials.

I discovered this space while on a cycle ride along the Leeds Liverpool canal. This huge, desolate, empty, spacious, vast, open, powerful, 'clean' space left me with a desire to go in there and do something with it!

I felt dwarfed by the hugeness of it. I moved as my body wanted to. I was drawn to lying on the ground, sprawled out, embracing the hugeness, writhing around, sensual."

Sarah:

"Underneath the motorway we moved on a stage of flat white concrete. The enormous pillars supporting the road gave a sense of vastness. I wanted to spread myself, to stretch out and meet the exhilarating rush of traffic over head.

I was aware of moving at a point of intersection, a place where road, rail and canal interconnect creating a sense of perpetual journeying. Even our audience was in motion, our impromptu performance glimpsed by the odd cyclist whizzing past.

I found myself moving swiftly and chaotically, my struggle to breath in this place forcing me to find a point of stopping. I became aware of the unhealthyness of the space, car fumes, pigeon feathers and the white dust, which began to coat us as we moved."
