Learn more about Sidra Bell Dance New York & Immanuel Wilkins Collaboration, by artists Sidra Bell & Immanuel Wilkins, Creative Capital Grantee 2023.
Sidra Bell Dance New York and acclaimed saxophonist, composer, and arranger Immanuel Wilkins began work on waiting in November 2020 at the height of the pandemic as a work-in-progress at a residency at the 92nd Street Y. The work was scheduled for a performance at National Sawdust in June 2020 but was canceled due to the global crisis. Work on the project continued through the 92nd Street Y in the fall with Bell and the company collaborating on Zoom with Wilkins. It had an online/low-tech showing. The work is a pure dance display of the joy and ecstatic spontaneity through improvisational modalities that Wilkins’s contemplative and rich composition evokes. Bell looks at identity through the lenses of surveillance, performance, voyeurism, and expectation in contemporary culture. A critical inquiry of this work is to look at the current trajectory of despair and dystopia that permeates the way that we connect with other bodies. The research is prompted by Bell’s personal navigation of disconnection, loneliness, and aimlessness through traveling. The work will have a poetic structure based in imagery and sensation. Bell will research through the specificity of formal dance vocabulary and action as it relates to body codes and social structures. The work navigates themes of resistance and counterculture. Our artistic team will develop a work that plays against hierarchical notions in performance and the engagement of audiences. The work places hybrid forms of movement against a wild mixture of textures and sound in the environment of the space. Read more: https://creative-capital.org/projects...
