Abstract
My choreographic curiosities lie in the various points of blurry overlap in this photo. As a dance-maker, I utilize characteristics of dissociation, out of body experiences, and obfuscated memory as tools for choreographing. This research has most recently manifested as a duet titled, underneath fog, then something bright, which attempts to choreographically enact rhythms of dissociative experiences. This photo of the duet is visually emblematic of the kinesthetic sensation I hope to curate for audiences of the work: it blurs senses of time and body to a point where we become unable to track where one thing ends and another begins.
