In "slip," things seen and unseen are explored by Philadelphia's contemporary dance company Moving Research. Six dancers share the space around a sculptural installation, moving in and out of sight of the viewer, eluding capture and stasis. Audience members follow the dancers or choose to stand and watch the dance as it flows past them. Each viewing experience is unique and personal. To see all the dancers' movements simultaneously is at most times impossible. Choreographed by Meg Foley, the dance weaves and slips through itself and the audience.
Performances at Studio 34: Yoga | Healing | Arts in West Philadelphia: May 8, 2008, 8:30pm; May 10, 8pm; May 11, 3pm; May 16, 8pm; May 17, 8pm, and May 18, 3pm. Photo by JJ Tiziou.
