Get up close and personal with our dance film “Leverage” this Saturday at @in_motion_festival. #linkinbio Creators Rachel Damon and Aaron Greer will open the process of transforming a stage piece into a dance for the camera. Dig in with us, moderator @artintercepts, and fellow maker @theamtraklor as part of the Local Artists Showcase! #dancefilm #danceforthecamera #chidance #chicagomakers #sneakpeek #workinprogress #inmotion2020 (at Loyola University Chicago Mundelein Center for Fine and Performing Arts) https://www.instagram.com/p/B8u6fPUnVO-/?igshid=z1oomvsni801

Videography. Editing. Choreography. Performance. by Me. 

Directed and choreographed by site-specific choreographer Noémie Lafrance, the short film Melt depicts a delicate, sensual and dramatic experience of the physical body in exile and surrender. Perched on a wall and wrapped in sculptural beeswax and lanolin costumes that are slowly melting away, dancers progress in euphoria and exhaustion as if approaching the sun, melting until their souls escape their ephemeral bodies and disintegrate into light.
