> Place vs. Site-specific

Hello. I've been thinking about the word Site and how I and collaborators use it in our dance making/performing. I think Site indicates that the location is defined by the dance itself. Site is a place something happens.
After reflection, I think using the word Place is more appropriate and respectful to the environment. After all, a location/place/site exists long before and long after the dance is performed. Site, seems a bit demeaning, to define a location in nature in relation to something we would do. The word Place holds for me, a sense of fullness, an awareness of the independent life of the Place.
What do you think?
