Sun Dogs Performance Final Cut


Thank you so much for all thier hard work and dedication

Sun Dogs Performance a collaborational, multimedia, site-specific performance. The piece will reinterpret through the use of Butoh, a mashup of the Sun Dance ceremony & Legend of the Raven Catching the Sun of the North American Natives. Using the human body as a projection surface to reflect and distort light this piece will create a visual dialogue between the dancers’ bodies. The soundscape will have live Middle Eastern drumming.
