Site-Specific Performance | ||
For two decades Dancing Earth has been designing performances which combine sculptural movement with architectural and natural settings. Recent site-specific performances include a masked procession at Kennedy Center in Washington DC, performances at The Contemporary Art Museum in Honolulu, masked dance at Sentosa Island Singapore, and stilt performance at the International Marketplace in Wakiki. From urban streets to pastoral woodlands, botanical gardens, museums, parks, cathedrals and beaches the human form provides commentary and insight on familiar landscapes. Site-specific performances reveal ground, texture, scale, color, and light as it is reflected and contrasted by performer and landscape. These performances vary from solos to small groups and can swell to giant spectacles with large casts. Masks, giant puppets, stilt characters can expand the size to magnify the environment. |
