Abstract

Sarah and Angie are dance artists and scholars based in Liverpool, and our practices engage with site, improvisation, ethics and the maternal. Offerings began during the UK Lockdown (2020). We called upon additional disciplines outside of performance related areas in order to cultivate insights into maternal states and home during pandemic. We wanted to develop awareness, understanding and different disciplines resulting in the methodology becoming transdisciplinary (Kershaw and Nicholson 2010:5/6). This methodology developed out of our commitments to flexibility, rigor and support to address the complexity of the ways in which notions of home and the maternal have been highlighted by the pandemic. We bring these three areas together via feminist ethics and address the ethical implications of such work. Overall, this chapter reveals a reflective account of working in the home and testifies to the intimate nature, importance and value of self as researcher.
