09/24 + 09/25 8:00 PM, 09/26 5:00 + 8:00 PM, Nicole Pierce and EgoArt, Inc. present Mozart's Requiem The Center for the Arts at the Armory, 191 Highland Avenue, Somerville MA
Nicole and the dancers began working on this piece again in the Spring of 2008. It will be over a year and a half of process to bring to fruition. Pierce has shot video footage of the natural world (trees, sky) in four seasons and the dancers have learned 14 sections of dance material. Surrounded by video projection, the audience will watch the dance while the environment projected around them changes from Spring to Winter. The installation requires hanging 5 video screens, creating seating for 60 and installing a dance floor. Dancer and costume designer Anna Zamarripa is creating 24 costumes that metamorphose with the changing video projection. This work is an unflinching attempt at great beauty and spectacle as well as introspection and emotionality. The combination of the complex, sensual dancing, the beauty of the natural world and transcendent music will provide the armature for a provocative and unusual dance concert.
Please note: seating is limited to 60 seats per performance. Reservations are strongly recommended.
