13 Illustrations: Out of Order

Mountain, Threading, Hover

Rooted in the everyday mundane to gently awaken the magic within.

About

13 Illustrations: Out of Order is a series of pictographic vignettes commissioned by Miki Orihara, former Principal Dancer with the Martha Graham Dance Company, and accompanied by the structured jazz improvisation of pianist Senri Oe. Produced by the LaGuardia Performing Arts Center (LPAC) as part of the CUNY Dance Initiative in April 2017, it premiered on Resonance II alongside the repertory of Martha Graham, Merce Cunningham, and Lar Lubovitch.
