Lifedreaming

Inspired by Australian Aboriginal ground paintings which trace the paths of myth animals, three dancers create a ground painting over the course of three solos and one trio. Each dancer represents a different myth animal: Rainbow Snake, Bralgah Bird and Red Kangaroo. Each "animal" moves over ground in its own distinct way and as a result, each solo adds a distinct texture to the painting.

Presented by Chelsea Studio Gallery in New York, NY and the Yale University Art Gallery in New Haven, CT.

The following is an excerpt from the opening section: Rainbow Snake performed by Brook Notary.
