Learning Modern Dance From a Book (16 Times)

2006

A performance for video piece in which I, without previous modern dance
experience, attempt to teach myself basic modern dance moves from a
tutorial book. The piece proposes the idea of learning as performance,
instead of a well-polished dance as performance. The jump-cut, lyrical
editing allows the dancer to transcend the original intention of each move.
