Walk (premiere)
Choreography by JENNIFER ARCHIBALD
Length of work: 17 min.
Number of performers: 5
When we walk like (we are rushing), we print anxiety and sorrow on the earth. We have to walk in a way that we only print peace and serenity on the earth… Be aware of the contact between your feet and the earth. Walk as if you are kissing the earth with your feet.
– Thich Nhat Hanh
PRESS:
“Archibald and composer Raúl Pastor Medall are masterfully restrained, as if to say, “Sit with this.”...
"a well-crafted example of [Archibald's] catalog, which is not seen often enough in Chicago."
