Japanese-born, New York-based choreographer Kota Yamazaki was in residence at BAC in 2016 to develop the second part of his Darkness Odyssey trilogy: I or Hallucination. The work's 2017 World Premiere, presented in our Howard Gilman Performance Space, is screening now as part of PlayBAC: Peformances from the Archive.
During a 2016 studio visit, BAC Story writer Cori Olinghouse observed the performers creating "a fragmented reality, in which a simultaneity of gestures, utterances, and inflections form an interconnected network. Kota offers a vision of the body becoming like a black hole, which absorbs everything." The dancers can be seen rehearsing at BAC in this Dance Magazine video feature.
