In Of the Valley, of the Wind, circular, sweeping motions signify the aging process. Repetitive movements, seen at ever-changing angles, illuminate the situation of dancers who practice somatic and athletic approaches to movement. Two dancers moving in close proximity to each other relate to a common metronomic structure. A constant rhythmic signature guides precise, yet expansive movements in spatial patterns that suggest waves, clocks, wet clay, and flowers. Building in intensity and image, we observe the same material held and handled, folded and thrown, by two people who are not identical, obviously of different ages and genders. The unlikely pair tell stories about how their bodies have been molded independently over decades. Like clouds that gather, their individualistic expressions merge, transcending design and iconography. By resisting their optical identities, they become singular, mutually dependent. Plural. United by contrast, their dance evokes core social questions of bodily impermanence and perseverance.
