This is me at a public bathroom at the Gerding Theatre. I had to be quick as there was a line of people waiting to use the restroom. I had my camera, I had a moment and I thought why not?
Yulia Arakelyan (Portland), Kathryn Hightower (Seattle), and Kimberly Kaplan (NYC) met while Dance Majors at the University of Washington. The three budding artists had early success with their first dance projects together, and couldn’t bear to part when two graduated and moved to new cities. For the past three years, they have collaborated via videos, emails, blogs, and late night phone calls, to create dance that explores “barriers” in all their forms.

Road Closed
I thought they might have built a bridge by now, but the river continues to flow in its own pathway.
Waterfall
The cool breeze that comes off this powerful fountain is soothing to the tired muscles and overworked mind...
Terrain
We think of rituals and rites as something outside of ourselves, our time, our place, but rituals can come from within and be expressed without, if we allow them, in these modern times. You don't even have to leave your home or your city, but I myself was inspired by nature this weekend. This is the first of four rituals from those adventures with nature.

I love dancing on the floor or in this case on a matted platform. I love feeling my whole body move.

Check this one out. It is a new way for us to create something together while living separately.

The Pre-Dance Dance [Daily Dance Diary #18]
July 18, 2010
This feels more like a warm-up to a dance that never happened.

Anxious [Daily Dance Diary #17]

Right now I feel nervous, anxious, overwhelmed, uninspired to dance or film, but I must. This is good for me.
