Blonde Ambition performed at the National Portrait Gallery in Canberra in association with the exhibition ‘In The Flesh’.
With hundreds turning up to watch their two performances, it was an amazing reception! Blonde Ambition just can’t wait to visit Canberra again :)
Footage taken from Blonde Ambition's 2011 Responsive Residency with Critical Path.
The trio explores the 'Blonde' movement vocabulary through the actions of walking and falling. The images of an upright and comprehensible female form collide violently with the inverted female form struggling on the ground like an insect that has lost it's footing.
The 'Blonde' form is strongly emphasised in the simple actions of walking and falling. Arms akimbo creating a thrust chest and a clearly defined 'personal space'; they strut, they teeter, they totter- the Blondes walk.
Blonde Ambition is...

...a contemporary dance trio who aim to deconstruct and investigate the notion of a feminine ideal in their work.The 'Blondes' explore a physical vocabulary that references quotidian gesture, contemporary dance, burlesque and grotesque theatricality. They are heavily influenced by popular culture and lived experience as they conduct their anthropological investigation into gendered ways of 'being'.

Footage taken from Blonde Ambition's 2011 Responsive Residency with Critical Path.
The trio use their 'Blonde' movement vocabulary to respond to the visual stimulus of a reflected self image. Questions of perception and perspective are brought to the fore as the Blondes explore the architecture of the real and reflected urban environment, whilst also exploring the architecture of their bodies in action and in collaboration.
