Where you can see this artist's work:
'Films: BREAKWATER and others' July 6th, 2016: 6-9pm July 9th, 2016 10pm-?? Jengo's Playhouse Wilmington, NC Artist Statement:
I am interested in the function of multidisciplinary art making. Having access to the creation of several elements within a project (space, audio, costumes, etcetera) allows me to approach my work with manifold angles and lenses. Jumping off from a conceptual platform with questions and ideas regarding kinesthetic scope, movement invention, and general “what if” scenarios begins the route towards the development of new time-based performances. The genesis of my art is generally from a cerebral axis, which in time transfers to a presentation of a three-dimensional physical experience. BREAKWATER: Breakwater is dance for the camera piece exploring abstract narrative within the context of a simplistically fractured autobiography. Breakwater explores quirky camera angles, pedestrian movement, and various performance energies. Physical and psychological tensions abound in this choppy screen dance filmed at Atlantic Beach, NC, with a found sound score from a subway train in NYC.
