I hunger for you

In I hunger for you, deeply internalized forces of faith, violence, life force, and compassion pulse through bodies that exist in a mesmerizing, starkly beautiful, often dangerous world.  In a world defined by light and its absence, the work looks deeply into the heart of the impulse to lose oneself in ecstasy, ritual, desire, and searching, riding an edge of barely controlled abandon and vibrating stillness.

Kimberly Bartosik/daela

The mission of Kimberly Bartosik/daela is to create viscerally provocative choreographic projects that are built upon the development of a virtuosic movement language, rigorous conceptual explorations, and the creation of highly theatricalized environments.  Bartosik closely collaborates with her performers and designers to create work that is deeply informed by literature and cinema, involves complex plays on space, time, and audience perspective, and dramatically illuminates the ephemeral nature of performance.
