SEVEN

2022

Inspired by Rheostatics' retrospective musical score on the work of the Group of Seven, SEVEN explores the internal and external environments we occupy. Through a series of solo narratives, intimate duets, and intricate group ensembles, the work captures familiar moments where solitude and companionship intersect and coexist. Moments of fluid synchronicity are manipulated and disturbed by the internal narratives of the artists that work both in opposition and partnership to one another. The cast, featuring seven new voices in contemporary dance functions as an ecosystem itself, applying touch, isolations, and repetition in their engagement with one another, articulating the universal experience of being both alone and together.
