Together-Apart
This Video emerged during the first five weeks of the Corona Pandemic in Europe. 18 dancers from 3 different continents and 5 different countries have created their own self-isolation dance at home. All the dancers in the Video have previously collaborated with or performed for the Follow Through Collective and can finally be seen in one continuous dance together. This was an attempt to continue feeling engaged and connected with all my collaborators and it was very touching to see everyone dance in their homes across the world. One of the dancers even send a video from a quarantine camp in Hong Kong. No matter where, this video connects us all through one long dance.
Dance can be a powerful tool to stay connected, even when you are physically apart.
