Grayscale Dance Presents “THESE SPACES OF POSSIBILITY”
THESE SPACES OF POSSIBILITY is an evening-length interdisciplinary piece combining dance, film, visual arts and architecture. It draws inspiration from poems by Mary Oliver, Brian Eno’s Oblique Strategies, repetitive geometry and the juxtaposition of reality and imagination. THESE SPACES OF POSSIBILITY crafts an immersive environment for the viewer to investigate the narrative terrains that exist between each of us.
