Ego Altar is a soulful portrait of individuals, capturing their spirit through gestures, poses and carefully orchestrated interactions. A series of full bodied physical conversations explore individual identity and conformity in response to one's immediate environment and to society's expectation.
Dancers move on, around, in and under different types of altars. Exploring each space as a sanctuary or sacrilege. Ego Altar brings a balance between light and dark moods and graceful, impulsive movements into a unique relief. A sense of femininity, intimacy and density all come together seamlessly.
