Beschreibung:
The Finnish-born Canadian artist presents an installation work inspired from Art Nouveau design where the reflected image of a dancer moves across the gallery space, implicating the viewer in their choreographed dance. The movement is reminiscent of Loïe Fuller?s serpentine dance of the 19th century. Fuller was a choreographer, costume designer, dancer, and an inventive stage designer published in Scientific American. Credited as a pioneer of modern dance, she used her voluminous robes as a performative sculptural object, radically positioning dance within a conceptual realm. The choreographed movement of the dancer?s robes in this installation, create metamorphic and ephemeral sculptural structures that pass through shifting tones and colours. Published to accompany an original exhibition that will tour until 2020 to Mount Saint Vincent University, Kitchener-Waterloo Art Gallery, Judith & Norman Alix Art Gallery, Kelowna Art Gallery, and Dunlop Art Gallery.00Exhibition: Robert McLaughlin Gallery, Oshawa, Canada (14.04.-16.09.2018)
