One of the most memorable and unique holiday chair dance performances in the history of the art.
A true symbiosis between dancer and chair- en pointe!
The artist dresses in pantsuit to match the chair (almost), and remains firmly riveted to the goldleaf bamboo-sateen seat, which she strokes, rubs, and touches in a manner that conveys true love of the chair, and the act of sitting.
Interesting use of seated snakedance, exopthalmic synchronized eye movements, jazz-hand-and-toe-combo (!) and some unique head/shoulder action that initially “reads” as some sort of tic or spasticity but is then revealed to be part of the self-styled choreography.
Ample use of dry ice and tossing of glitter underlines the “otherness” of both holiday mythology, and the chair dance itself.
Sublime. Enjoy!
