Review from Seattle Dances

Click image to scroll

Three musicians, eight dancers, and hundreds of yards of blue tape. Salk work explores perception and perspective visually and aurally. Musicians move around the space, playing on catwalks and surrounding the audience with sound, while dancers navigate and negotiate space, sometimes in concert with one another, and sometimes in ferocious opposition.

Made in collaboration with the composer, dancers and musicians.

Made possible, in part, by the Petersen Endowed Professorship.

Re-imaginings commissioned for:

Florida Dance Festival, Tampa, Florida 2014 (as part of repertory class)

Cornish Preparatory School, Broadway Performance Hall, Seattle, WA 2015
