Self as Other
Full-length video, 11:23
2019
Self as Other was shot in studio with choreographer/dancer Peter Quanz & dancer Kristin Haight. Their direction was to hold a difficult balancing pose for as long as possible. Playing between the languages of photography & video, this piece intends to portray the ambiguity of the male and female dancers' bodies. The ecstasy of the gesture acts as a counterpoint to the torture experienced by their bodies in this closely intertwined pose.
