GRAVITY
is a collaboration between Japanese dancer/choreographer Hideo Arai
and Canadian percussionists/composers Ganesh Anandan and Patrick
Graham. The piece, constructed as a series of tableaus, explores the
shared physical connections humans have to their Natural existence. A
sensual mix of dance, percussion and voice, GRAVITY blurs the
boundaries between movement and sound.
