Crossing:
Stories of Gravity and Transformation
(2002)
Originally this piece was an eighteen-day performance traverse
of the Sierra Nevada from East to West to create site-specific
work including a 1,200 foot vertical octet on Wildcat Point
at the headwaters of the Tuolumne River. This collaboration
included cinematographer Greg
Bernstein, composer/musician Zachary
Carrettin, eight performers, four riggers and 4,000 feet
of climbing rope. This piece is being adapted for the stage
in 2003 with a Creation Grant from the National Dance Project
and additional support from Creative
Capital. A multi-media video and musical score, funded through
Rudolph's Irvine
Fellowship in Dance was developed in 2001 to accompany the indoor
work. |
