Description The themes in this work are about constantly moving from place to place, like flowing thoughts transiting from one stage to another, dreamings, memories, shifting, like a gypsy from place to place, its about being singular, its about chance meetings, ultimately its about opening the gates of the imagination opening yourself to new opportunities.
Each dancer was given a page of text from "Italo Calvinos" (Invisible Cities) then asked to read and discard it, and use the residue as their creative stimulus.
