BODYART, a multimedia, nine-member modern dance theatre company, today announced its New York City season slated to premiere three works by the company’s Founder/Artistic Director Leslie Scott. Heavily influenced by photography, painting, and artistic collaborations, Scott presents a program that combines live musical performances, one-of-a-kind video projections and exclusive pictures with movement.
Highlighting the evening is LOFT – the NYC premiere of a 3-part work based on the movements of predatory birds. By coupling fluttering, wing-like arms and feathery black tutus with a provocative movement vocabulary while staged on a landscape of snow, LOFT symbolizes the juxtaposition of freedom and group mentality evidenced in the flocking of birds. LOFT is set to live music for contemporary string quartet PUBLIQuartet composed exclusively for this premiere by the Brooklyn-based W4 New Music composers collective.
