Works
A prelude to "Remains". Knowing the primal versions of ourselves allows our bodies to be seen in a different light. The lens people see our impulses influence our decisions, but what will remain is a fundamental part of our being.
This body holds versions of myself. Calm, restless, young and grown. Masculine with feminine, spontaneous and focused. I'm tired of shifting between them. So I learn to let these inner pulses escape. Revealing a balanced and reclaimed body. This is 29.
In search of an improv based work, this piece continues to live in whichever space it is performed. The known and revealed score in this work allows me to find comfort in the unknown spectrum of performance.
In preparation for my evening length work, this piece was composed with that end in mind. Integrating text as a thread, these dance pieces orbit the essence of who I am as a person.
The title comes from a dream. The piece comes from a reality. Entering an intimate space, the dancer willingly becomes vulnerable and open to an experience while the brain limits and the heart exudes. Lightness, tenderness, and unfolding in movement questions why this is the last of anything.

A self-reflective piece, the dancer sees himself arrive, retreat, exhaust, and collect himself through time. Originally about the choreographer’s fear of open water at night, one can still see the turbulence, pull, and break in movement; all while attempting to becalmed.

The work dives into our primal instinct driven by curiosity. A pursuit for answers starts as a “want” and subconsciously becomes a “need”.
