set for Spline
2017
Set of five steel sculptures, each measuring 4' x 6' x 6" commissioned by and produced for the set of Michiyaya Dance's March 2017 showcase Spline at Manhattan Movement Art Center in New York City.
Spline explores various physical and psychological boundaries that are created within ourselves and by outside forces. MICHIYAYA Dance unfolds how these systems shape and form a person’s life. The life and voice of Co-Artistic Director Mitsuko Verdery's grandfather ‘Pampa’ serves as a vessel to dive deeper into boundaries connected to mental health and relationship navigation. The word spline is defined as a key fitting into the grooves of a wheel, integrally with the shaft to allow movement of the wheel. Spline maps out the turning and cyclical nature of these discoveries.
