I am deeply saddened to hear that the dance world has lost one of its greatest souls, a great artist and one of its most interesting thinkers about what it is to move in a body.
Independent Dance, of which Gill was Director has issued the following message today:
Gill Clarke died on November 15 2011 as she lived, calmly and with great poise.
ID has lost a wonderful director and inspiring artist. However, we have been working together to ensure our vision of ID continues to grow.
We have already been receiving some beautiful messages and this has given us the idea to create a place where we can hold them, and to consider appropriate ways to share them.
So, if you would like to send thoughts, memories, or images of Gill, please email them to: gillclarke@independentdance.co.uk
Here she is, doing what she does best, may those who knew her and her work grow the seeds that she planted:

Gill was a fantastic dancer and a brilliant intellect who could have done well in any field she chose.
