Element of Composition︎︎︎
A Deck of Cards-
Sourcing the grid and chromatic structure of Mexican Lottery Cards to break down elements of choreographic composition. The lottery cards are rectangular in shape, each one with a single symbolic image, framed by a saturated color. Here, parsing dance-making tools and concepts into small parts, addressing the belief that images can refract and deepen text-content. And alluding to the notion that compositional tools could be played like a card game— obliquely referencing chance technique. Deal out the cards and make something from all the information on the cards the dealer gives you.
