BODY SPACE IMAGE: Notes Towards Improvisation and Performance is an innovative and influential work that explores the intersections of movement, space, and creativity in performance art and dance. Authors Miranda Tufnell, a dancer and movement therapist, and Chris Crickmay, an artist and writer, combine their diverse expertise to offer a unique perspective on improvisation and performance. The book serves as both a practical guide and a source of inspiration, presenting a series of exercises, ideas, and reflections that encourage readers to explore the relationships between their bodies, the spaces they inhabit, and the images they create. Tufnell and Crickmay emphasize the importance of sensory awareness, spontaneity, and the integration of various art forms in the creative process.

The text is complemented by evocative photographs and drawings that illustrate concepts and inspire further exploration. This work challenges traditional boundaries between disciplines, encouraging a holistic approach to performance that draws from dance, visual arts, poetry, and somatic practices. "BODY SPACE IMAGE" has become a seminal text for dancers, performers, visual artists, and anyone interested in the creative potential of movement and embodied expression, offering a framework for developing a more intuitive, expressive, and integrated approach to performance and artistic creation.
