Spatial Dialogues, a multi-media dance piece, created in collaboration with Nancy Lushington (Choreographer) and Rob Dutiel (Set and Lighting Designer) premiered at Marymount Manhattan College's Theresa Lang Theatre on December 12, 2009 (shows ran through 12/14/09)

"Spatial Dialogues" investigates perceptions of space, such as the relationships between exterior and interior or public and private space. Creating in the intersection between new media, choreography and set design, the three collaborators were interested in an exploration of the impact of space on physicality and movement and its representation through technology.

Funded with a Sokol Grant.
