TiLTING VERTICALITIES (exercise #±1 ) nests and expands the choreographic language of movement, and dance from my lived experiences as a dance artist. It resembles a spatial meditation sensed in direct relation to another, liberating a non-verbal, pre-linguistic form of knowledge. Moving collaboratively like in the art of dancing, this exercise, reimagines the unifying act of peaceful engagement through the simple yet profound act of being in touch.

Holding each other as we nurture new perspectives, bringing one's own equilibrium into balance, while sharing our unique ways of moving, counterbalancing, and being moved—engaging with the choreographies and architecture of each given context and space.


Each loop sculpture and elastic painting serves as a expanded documentation of the performance, becoming an object of experience that resonates into the future—both documentation and a resonant object—an embodied archive of the work’s choreographic life.
These materials record the encounter without fixing it, holding memory while leaving space for future iteration.

Beyond this performative moving installation, immersive choreographic process, and participatory practice, TiLTING VERTICALITIES invites us to (re)animate, (re)imagine and sustain dances, rituals, conversations on different dimensions of being and caring.
