"Angel mid-swing//It boils from within"

Presented as part of Split Bill on Friday, April 25, 2025. This work titled “Angel mid-swing//It boils from within” begins in a maelstrom of nostalgia that visits the magical realism of a hurricane during early 2000’s mexican subcultures, this dance surfaces from the disorienting forces of rage. Through trance-inducing techniques, time becomes suspended, and the viewer is transported to the eye of the storm. This work lies at the intersection of sustainable fashion, performance art, dance theater & ritual.

Two dancers in red light, one reaching over the other from behind

Three dancers on a dark stage in dim red and amber light, one lying on the floor

Dancers leaning into each other in a low lunge under blue stage light

A group of dancers with raised arms in red light, one in front with arms flung wide

A performer in blue light baring clenched teeth, hands clawing at their throat
