fleshmitten

This high-powered slow-mo duet takes on dance as an illicit opportunity for the spectator to infiltrate the body of the performer, and it celebrates our potential as dance-makers to custom fit events to this exact impulse. We see each other; we accept being seen and touched; we take this as far as we can. Think of it as a body rental, a supernatural possession, or a superhero's suit - fleshmitten nestles into the space between us.
