Shifting Time
Shifting Time (2019) is a dance-theater work exploring the complex thoughts, perceptions, and experiences of human and environmental time. This ensemble piece weaves together solos, duets, and group sections, each themed from a different perspective such as “Eternal Time,” “Clock Time,” “Environmental Time” and “Body Time.” Integrating contemporary dance, Japanese butoh influences, theater, live music, and spoken word, the work creates a dynamic moving landscape inspired by diverse concepts of time researched through various texts and personal life experiences.
