Studies in Solitude is a dance film and performance project that investigates the solo body's relationship to self and natural surroundings. The work examines how the container of a body shifts based on the content of surrounding landscape. This first installment of Studies in Solitude was created up in the Catskill Mountains and Hudson River Valley, and engages with both poetic pastoral landscapes as well as raw and real homes and neighborhoods of communities displaced up to Hudson from the Bronx. These studies invite the viewer to witness a body navigating within, around and amongst spatial histories.
