Ko-bu is a new evening-length dance by Japanese-American/NYC-based Benjamin Kimitch. A solo for dancer/collaborator Julie McMillan, Ko-bu seeks to create a sensory landscape in which to contemplate grief and loss through a series of articulated pauses and sustained images.
The choreography is developed through Kimitch’s research of the last compositions written by western composers in the classical music canon, such as Charles Ives, Richard Strauss, and Gustav Mahler, whose music serve as poetic guides. The choreography emerges from years of assembling religious images, in particular those of flying apsaras and Boddhisatvas featured in the historic Buddhist Dunhuang cave murals of northern China.
