Shadowboxin'

Shadowboxin' treats light as an active participant. Choreography is built to interact with moving beams, thrown shadows, and slit-stage reflections that create an ever-shifting opponent. Dancers do not only respond to partners but to the negative spaces cast by their own gestures. Rhythms snap into place as light slices the floor; soft glows reveal tender counterpoints. This ritual of illumination makes visible the unseen edges of movement—hesitation, intention, the spaces between beats. The performance becomes an exploration of how presence is measured not only by what is performed, but by what light allows to be seen.
