THE SHOW
In Response to the Metafold 2016
In Response to the Metafold is an offbeat response to an exhibition of large-scale surrealist oil paintings by Brendan Schick. Presented at the Art Gallery of Regina, this work allowed the dancers to respond to a series of visual art works in an interpretive manner of their choosing. The collaboration was an exciting opportunity to cross-pollinate, bringing together visual art and dance audiences through a 30-minute piece presented in the same physical space as the paintings.

of the show
“… spongy masses, almost like cumulus clouds, that peek from blue hoodies, or the tumorous accretions floating over twisted purple sheets…” - Galleries West
