Événement
Perfect Tension by Chris Ferris & Dancers
Perfect Tension
a full evening work of dance by
Chris Ferris & Dancers
Choreography: Chris Ferris
Music: Loren Kiyoshi Dempster
Dancers: Louisa Armstrong, Erin DeLucia-Benson, Gianna Lafronza, Kim Machaby, Annastasia Mercedes, Cecly Placenti, Mary Kate Sickel, and Diane Skerbec
Perfect Tension is a full evening of intricate, high powered dance that pulls you into the exhilarating world of stress. Layer upon layer of the frenetic, oppositional, flopped, and forced, create relationships and dissolve them. Turbulence rushing to a deadline stops cold, collision brings unification, support is abandoned, and the complicated becomes simple. We are urgent in our need to give you resolution with the survival of harmony. How is blissful serenity achieved? Is it always the optimal state? When can stress serve you in the end?
Perfect Tension is a suite of 4 dances choreographed by Chris Ferris with music by Loren Kiyoshi Dempster. Paper Birds Real Flight includes partnering with body size sheets of paper creating its own crunch and thunder sound score. Bargain Of A Lifetime is a series of tense beginnings, strange meetings, and gentle endings. Danger Among Friends is a solo danced by Erin DeLucia-Benson with sets by Chris Ferris. It is a gathering of clutched and accumulated actions, which mount in number, as the dancer attempts maximal correctness. Torrential Dance Fall takes what is awkward and adds nervous vibration. The challenge is to turn the dance over to self comfort and serene calm. We ratchet things up and calmly set them down. In what pitch will you leave?
Chris Ferris is the artistic director of Chris Ferris & Dancers. Her work is based on an exploration of movement from a sculptural, dynamic and emotional point of view. Its focus is to bring you design in space and time with a human element. Perfect Tension, our new full evening work, premiered at FLICfest in Jan. 2014. Urban Pastoral an outdoor improvisation with 10 sculptural lights by Warren Kloner, 10 dancers, and live music by Max Maples, Loren Dempster, Helen Yee, and Brian Adler was presented, for its Spring 2014 series, in Central Park NYC and Squibb Park/Bridge. In the Fall of 2013 we presented at the Tobacco Warehouse, Brooklyn Bridge Park; The High Line, Manhattan; and Central Park NYC.
Circuitous Body, was performed at Roulette, Bklyn NY 4/12 and Green Space LIC, NY 11/12 where it was partially funded by a Mertz Gilmore Foundation Late-Stage Stipend. Chris Ferris & Dancers' 2011 concert, Continental Drift, was presented at CPR Center for Performance Research. Proximity Of Clouds (2010 full evening work), premiered at Joyce SoHo NYC; incorporating sculptures that hang, swing, slash, glow, and illuminate creating ethereal forms, a forest of moving architecture, and corporeal presences. Ferris' dances have been shown in New York at 3 season concerts at the Cunningham Studio Theater. Her work has also been presented at WestFest, Green Space Blooms, Biomorphic Dance Festival, Performance Mix, Solar Powered Dance Festival, Dance Conversations at the Flea, WAXworks, SWEAT Modern Dance Series, Movement Research at Judson Church, University Settlement, the 92nd Street Y, and a variety of other venues.
