It became a formative journey that has had a profound impact on her life; an empowering and affirming experience, which she describes as something akin to literally stepping back into her own body, voice, confidence, and (re)learning how to appreciate herself and body. Many of us will relate to this powerful idea of stepping into oneself, as it is universal. It speaks to the common expression of \u2018finding oneself\u2019, something some of us have had to do at some point in our lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.monumoments.no\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/image005-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-385\" style=\"width:543px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.monumoments.no\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/image005-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.monumoments.no\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/image005-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.monumoments.no\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/image005-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.monumoments.no\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/image005-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.monumoments.no\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/image005-2048x1365.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.monumoments.no\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/image005-18x12.jpg 18w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>To make this commemoration concrete, we have etched the prints into the pavement outside the dance studio were she trained as a dancer.
