Harmonize Then and Now

Only time will tell what will become of us, somehow distinguished from our past selves.
It may finally be time to mingle our needs with a wanting inclination. We may find we’re capable of tackling these future challenges if we’re willing to return to the past.

LFDT presents 101.2, the third act in The 101 Series.

Filmed in early May of 2020 while most of the world was still under lockdown, dancers used the LFDTCLASS framework to create solo work informed by our recent project, 'Mapping Now: Vital Little Plans' , a map inspired by New York City’s grid systems on the Lower East Side. The map is annotated with statements inspired by the writings of Jane Jacobs and are gentle suggestions or prompts that can be taken into action through reflection, in movement, or on the streets.

In response to Jacobs' prompts and her work's foundational principle that: any given public space is defined by the degree to which we participate with it,  101.2 has dancers engage in a movement-based dialogue about the human experience that questions and maps the way we move in public space, and ponders notions of access, of privilege or isolation.
