Jasmin provided Year 12 Dancers with a conceptual grounding in Indigenous choreographic processes, explored through her artist talk and practical workshop. Not only was this knowledge valuable for developing their own choreographic processes, but her insight as a professional dancer with Bangarra Dance Theatre will assist students to broaden their understanding of 'Terrain' – the HSC prescribed Dance Appreciation work. The students were also fortunate enough to learn some of Jasmin’s repertoire from her recent work ‘The Complication of Lyrebirds’ which premiered in January at Campbelltown Arts Centre as part of the Sydney Festival 2021. As developing performers and artists at St Patrick's, we were very fortunate to have had this opportunity to work alongside and learn from an industry professional like Jasmin.
