LIVING LANDSCAPES
Live outdoor screenings happening late SUMMER 2021.. Stay tuned...
|
LIVING LANDSCAPES is Shana Simmons Dance's 2021 project working with environmental themes. Shana Simmons (choreographer/director) and Arvid Tomayko (filmographer/editor) are collaborating on a feature length dance for film. These films will be screened to live audiences in late Summer 2021.
The duo will work collaboratively to develop a creative vision exploring how human action on micro levels affects environments on macro levels which will weave through the film’s progression. Simmons will create dance vignettes by blending choreographed site-specific pieces to visually represent the earth’s major biomes. The duo will connect a global perspective of mankind’s effect on the environment, then narrow the scope to concerns specific to Pittsburgh.

SHAKESPEARE MOVES (GLOBAL COLLECTIVE)
Constructed Sight is a series of dance for films each created and inspired by a public work of art around Pittsburgh. Three choreographers (Shana Simmons, Jamie Erin Murphy, Brady Sanders) is working to construct meaningful pieces of choreography by physically incorporating and being inspired by a variety of public works of art. Constructed Sight: Winter takes a slightly different approach as the choreographers are aiming to collaborate an overall theme connecting each of the six films together through one piece of artwork. Within each film another piece of artwork or architecture will be highlighted and focused on.
This project was formulated in direct response to the Covid-19 pandemic in an effort to continue generating meaningful and interactive dance performance events.
