The week in Eygalières was an absolutely unique experience in every sense. The opportunity to work with Imogen at length and in depth is very rare and special on its own, and thanks to her extremely sensitive and open-minded approach, this week was not only deeply enriching, but also somewhat liberating. It was a week of really intense work, and I am not sure if this kind of very high but natural concentration would be possible to achieve in a more conventional setting - it felt as if the peacefulness and beauty of the place and the atmosphere of Bryan and Pat's house were intertwined and perfectly matched with the concept of this ‘master-class’. I am so grateful for the most wonderful and fruitful time.
