you were saying (2020)
In what feels like an unwanted rebirth, a galactic creature finds herself underwater. Perhaps it’s foolish to feel joy again, but this newfound, metallic playground is just too tempting.

Rhea (2019)
Rhea, a flightless oddity among her bird family, pressed her accordion neck through the fence opening. Meeting my height on her svelte legs, she bowed her head, so I did the same. She shares a name with the mother of Zeus. I asked her how she continues to stand erect on strained muscles.

That's Not My Neighbor (2018)
Since Fidel Castro's revolution, the globalization of dance has initiated heightened interaction between Cuban and American artists. In That’s Not My Neighbor, five women move through sharp accents, intricate torso undulations, and swift footwork to echo the urgent nature of political discussions. The slap of a metronome and skewed balletic positions depict the force of American, artistic standards. Under the threat of alienation, dancers must navigate through the illusions and tensions of collaboration and alternate between the roles of the “watched” and the “watchers”.  photo: Cecilia Bole

Beak Beat (2018)
Beak Beat  is an imaginative ode to chickens. Audiences are welcomed into a postmodern coop--a place of zany gestures, flirtatious struts, and surprise. photo: Cecilia Bole
