ADELAIDE, Australia – Wandering through world music festival Womadelaide in March, I stumble upon dancers Chloe Loftus and Florent Devlesaver entwined in an embrace metres above the ground. Held aloft by cables, they caress, twirl and contort before Loftus pulls away, balancing with a flourish on Devlesaver’s wheelchair.
Elsewhere, an unselfconscious crowd sways and chants to the call-and-response of Meganesia, a dance workshop by Papua New Guinea and indigenous Australian artists.
