What do you think Zhaan's defining moment in Farscape was? Question from Paul Robinson
Hi Paul Robinson.
It's a tricky one because playing Zhaan was, it was a strange feeling because it's like having another alternate lifetime. It's like being alive in another dimension as well as having my human life here. She very much was alive for me.
So what I'm trying to say is it's hard to pick one defining moment, but I think the best way for me to answer that is to say that every time that I was in Unity with anybody else I think was the most important and most soulful and most fulfilling and most important time for me.
Zhaan was a priest and so the expression of prayer within Unity was most intensely potent for her. The rest of the time of course she was very motherly and very loving to everybody, a highly spiritual being, but I think Unity was extraordinarily profound for me. Every time I did it I felt very light-headed afterwards, because I felt that I really was in an intense full state of meditation.
That's a really nice question Paul, thanks for that.
