Six seconds of movement, no sound.

A body opens folded. The heels lift, the load crosses to one foot and the hip drops with it, then it comes back down and ends bent, turned, chin up. It does not land clean. That was the point.

I made it here. The version before it carried weight and never moved it, until a movement artist watched it and told me the floor never answered. This one answers.

If you watch it, I would rather hear one true thing about it than a like. #screendance #dancefilm #movement #videoart
