MY CHOREOGRAPHY LOOKS FOR WAYS TO MAKE THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE SUBLIME VISIBLE. I WAS ALWAYS FASCINATED BY WATCHING BALLET FROM THE WINGS. THE ETHEREAL IMAGE OF THE SOLOIST COMBINED WITH HER AUDIBLE BREATH AND MUFFLED TAPS OF TOE SHOES. GLISTENING RHINESTONES MIXED WITH FLOATING BEADS OF SWEAT SPIRALING IN FRONT OF STAGE MANAGERS ON HEADSETS. SHIN BULBS BLURRING THE IMAGE LIKE HEADLIGHTS. I WANT TO SHOW THE EXHAUSTION BEHIND PHYSICAL EXACTITUDE AND PRECISION IN ORDER TO MAKE WAY FOR SIGHS OF RELIEF. LIKE MY MOTHER'S SPENT BODY AMIDST THE RUBBLE OF WRAPPING PAPER AND DISHES STILL TO BE WASHED ON CHRISTMAS DAY. ELEMENTS OF TENSION, TINY EXPLOSIONS OF MOVEMENT, AND STILLNESS INTERTWINE WITH A KIND OF ROMANTICIZED HYPER REALITY. LIKE SEPIA PHOTOGRAPHS IN WAL-MART LIGHTING. AN EFFORTFUL BEAUTY.
