i have fluid images of small children's ecstatic eyes
and old ladies' mirthful mouths
and a thousand furtive sideways glances
turning into a million momentary stares of wonder.
what a pleasure.
thank you.

The SITE SERIES // Dance on Common Ground
...reflecting the sights, sounds and energy of our community spaces.

The SITE SERIES // Dance on Common Ground, brings live contemporary dance and improvisation performance into the public spaces that we inhabit daily, using movement as a means through which to see and enlivening these spaces in different ways. Staged in natural or urban locations, this series of site-specific performances explores the interactions and relationships of people both to a space and to each other as it surprises the audience with dance in unexpected places.

The SITE SERIES 2009 is part of the 4Culture King County Performance Network Site Specific Art Happenings and is supported by 4Culture and the City of Bellevue/Bellevue Arts Commission and Bellevue Parks and Community Services.

what a great piece in the park!
I'm so glad I came.
It has left me with a great aftertaste - after sight?
Like I went to an afternoon picnic -
images of dainty handkerchiefs, missed embraces
curious pigeons and sightseeing tourists....
