Bessie Award winner Walter Dundervill, known for his immersive performance environments fusing dance, costume, sound and visual art, returns to Live Arts for the first time since 2011.
Using ancient Roman frescoes, a 17th century mathematical theory, and a late mannerist painting as departure points, Skybox examines how we construct highly ordered views of nature and the supernatural to express concepts of futurity and the infinite.
I conflate the visual and choreographic aspects of dance into an arena where both have equal value, bringing the background materials of visual décor to the foreground while allowing the performance of the dance to recede. This creates a push/pull effect, encouraging the viewer to continually shift focus throughout the experience. In this way, my performances function as living temporal objects in which people and materials merge and interact - Walter Dundervill
