Lost & Found

Lost & Found is a DANCE MOViES Commission utilizing pedestrian and abstracted movement, Dada-inspired vocals, original text, and music. It wanders, forgets, and reinvents as it traverses a psychological and musical fugue-scape layered with coordinates, musical fragments, messages, and textual shards—and remembers the body in crisis. Kim and her team worked with EMPAC staff on location filming topographical material to be projected as a backdrop on a giant wall constructed at EMPAC, which consisted of hundreds of layered paper panels to create a pixel-like effect. An intricate lighting design to accentuate these panels/pixels was created, followed by rehearsals and filming of the two performers on the set.
