Works in Progress


New themes we surrender to you.

Cleaned and Burned themes: Memory, vertical connections, horizontal movement, love, passion, violence, broken bodies, death, healing, cleansing, giving, cultural memory, trauma, resurrection, and rebuilding.We thought it would be interesting to use rock and roll, a piece by classical composer Vilvadi, have periods of silence, children's poemes, having the contradictions of raw sounds, and softer movements of music. This piece will also be an experimental danse film shot in Port au Prince, Haiti - 2012.

Blues Basin themes: Love, power, violence, religion, spirituality, duality, bodies sliding, raw emotion, broken bodies, death, and contradictions. Our piece will have photos of the disaster of Japan projected onto 20 dancers. Our current idea is to have raw noise, unfiltered sound, periods of silence. Stay tuned for the unveiling...

Somehow I'm trying to contain my excitement, but failing miserably.
