Radiant (2008), choreographed by Holly Small; performed by Keiko Kitano
Small’s new solo, choreographed for her York University Department of Dance colleague Kitano, features original music by Governor General’s Award-winning multidisciplinary artist and York alumnus, John Oswald, and video projections created by Small and Oswald. Cutting-edge fogscreen technology allows Kitano to move through the video image, which is projected on a surface made of very light mist. The performance premiered as part of the show Dance Inside/Out, which took place on January 31 and February 1, 2008 at York's Sandra Faire and Ivan Fecan Theatre.
