Snapshots: Reflections of Women
Description
Nicholas Lincoln | Jane
Spawned from the artist’s own friendships with creative,
beautiful, and intelligent women, this emotionally
evocative piece questions society’s perception of
women. Through dance, Lincoln unveils unwavering
feminine compassion and delicate strength.
Maia Maiden | gangED
Pioneer: Creates, develops, or starts something
original. Gang: The coming together of community for
a common interest to originate something, create a
movement. Gang=Pioneer. Strength, love, and
identity. Lawful or lawless? Government owned or
government most wanted? Pre Civil war or post 911?
Tribal. Revolutionary. Urban.
Jennifer Ilse | Expedition of Coat (and Me)
This new solo piece is inspired by the journey of growing
up in a conservative small town in the 70’s — exploring
what it means to be a contemporary woman and to be
a person with integrity in this world. Through an alter
ego, a coat, and an empty map, Jennifer launches on an
expedition in search of a balance between what we hold
on to and what we let go.
Denise Armstead | DAdance
The intimacy and non-verbal communication between
horse and human is the visual metaphor for two duets
that examine the intense complexities of male/female
relationships. Two different perspectives — expressing
the raw gritty power of emotions.
Snapshots: Reflections of Women is a newly-commissioned collection of works created by local choreographers and dancers exploring the reflections of women pioneers. Snapshots increases the visibility of women’s experience through the language of the human body while highlighting each dance group’s individual spirit and repertoire. A full range of dance styles, cultures, aesthetics and approaches transform the stage into a forum sharing and celebrating women’s perspectives and stories.
