freeze frame
In 2012 I got interested in the idea of freezing time. Of course we've seen this device used in various ways in movies, and I decided to apply it to choreography.
This piece is meant to be seen as if during a performance of a dance, time randomly stops everyone and starts them back up. These frozen moments present an opportunity for those unfrozen to see their colleagues in a new way and even to take a bit of advantage of them.
