The first half of Corpus Mysteriis, a sextet based on the drawings from Vesalius’, De humani corporis fabrica, Cepi Corpus Cepi Choros was performed and made in part during a residency at Tanz Farm part of the Goat Farm Arts Center in Atlanta. Premeired May 2013.
“Corpus Mysterii remained true to the tone of the other works, featuring a mix of dance, theater, comedy and personal narrative. Movement often highlighted, appropriately enough, the full weight of the body; turns emphasized mass and momentum or falls created by resisting, or submitting to, the pull of gravity. ”
