The Gray Shape of Wasp’s Nests

Video Projection, Mapping, 2019

Choreography: Simone Ferro in collaboration with the performers

Video, Edit, Animation: Kym McDaniel

A collaboration with Simone Ferro’s Washington Park Collaborative Project and the Student Undergraduate Research Fellowship program. An act in appropriation, history, and the translation of memory. Projected photographs distort through screens and onto hanging doors. Shapes form into faces, then deteriorate once more. A metaphor for the transience of memory. All photographs were provided by the dancers and their families.
