Short Abstract

Throughout history, dance is a powerful tool for expression of self or community. Art, especially dance, became a way to react to societal shifts and stalemates through means of storytelling. Through my choregraphy, I used history of modern dance such as the mother of modern dance, Isadora Duncan, an incredibly influential choregrapher, Martha Graham, and her famous protege, Merce Cunningham. I used a combination of their methodology to choreograph my intrapersonal journey with dance and life.
