Music: Audience of one, swords project
Each artist responded to the following Prompts with several one word answers: I am...I'm From..I'm Good...I FEAR
The process included building gesture phrases for each prompt, assigning one gesture per word. After that, they were given the task of taking one or two gestures from each prompt to create a new phrase, set to music of their own choice and in any order using the added elements of repetition and leaning into their physical space. The final TASK was building a unison phrase by taking one gesture from each artist to create a string of new material.
Watch the solo pieces here I AM
MEET THE COMPANY HERE WE ARE
