Painted Dialogues
Age Recommendation: 18 + - suggested nudity and sexual lap dance
Painted Dialogues is a multimedia performance piece with 3 separate thematics. The first being a contemporary dance to showcase the raw human emotion frustration between two romantic parties. The second, a two-part mirror-burlesque scene, using UV-reactive paint on ourselves, and then each other as a symbol for self reflection and introspection and bringing that to each other in order to connect again; ” As the clothes come off, the paint comes on”. This leads into the final act- Our painted bodies weave and meld as the blacklight comes on in a sensual, powerful and feral dance. The romantic parties reconnect with a twist on power dynamics, as the scene culminates into an erotic lap dance.
