Created and performed by Pulitzer Prize-winning composer Caroline Shaw and Vancouver-based choreographer Vanessa Goodman, the atmospheric sound-and-dance installation will be performed live in Vancouver for the first time, featuring both artists in collaboration on stage.
An entrancing meditation on the cyclical nature of embodied memory, the performance is an experiential merging of movement and sound, as layers of Shaw’s soundscapes – from crashing ocean waves to tinny Edison wax recordings and distorted vocals – fold into one another, informing Goodman’s supple and hypnotic movement.
