FRAGMENTS OF A MEMORY

Memories are fragile. They are malleable, incomplete, and nonlinear. They exist as fragments, and can be triggered or recalled in bits and pieces. In 2015, the Association for Psychological Science published research showing that false memories of committing a crime... can be surprisingly easy to generate.

Choreographer, Kimber Wood

RUNNING TO STAND STILL

As most of us grow older, we find ourselves caught between fixating on the past or chasing after something down the line. Embracing the present moment truly frees our minds and allows us to acknowledge that the human condition demands that we feel and live. This performance
acknowledges that although life’s highs can be filled with pure joy, the lows are necessary to feel such contrast.

VOLUME 1

Enjoy a collection of independent choreographic pieces, what I call Volume I- the first of hopefully many series of movements that I have the opportunity to create and share.
