I was invited as a guest choreographer to create a new work for the company Ballet Kelowna, premiering on February 14 & 15, 2020.
As it is ( World Premiere )
Choreography: Eva Kolarova
Music: Tamara Montenegro: Glacier, Exploration of inner self - Go with it, Cinematic landscape - Earworm Mose Robert: Observer Theory
Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom
Award-winning choreographer Eva Kolarova promises to stimulate the senses and provoke thought with a work that explores ideas of loneliness and separation, and the urgency to form relationships with others.
The audience is taken to the other side of love, where yin balances yang. The dancers intertwine themselves in a contemporary ballad of self-love called "As it is".
“I thought about relationships and for me, I don’t want to talk about the stereotypical love story.
Seeking a relationship should never be without first understanding of who we are [alone], which is not the same as being lonely. Being lonely is a social construct a result of isolation."
