"Thought-provoking . . . mysterious . . . fascinating . . . you couldn't look away, what happened on stage was too authentic-looking and authoritative" Jennifer Dunning, New York Times
Shadows Across Our Eyes is bodies limited and constrained; aggressive and audacious; independent trajectories between movers that intertwine and entangle. Neon lines in tension cut the space, iconic narrative stand offs back away and move into active self-bindings, and outwardly focused mind states morph into inward unknowable personas. Shadows Across Our Eyes presents a series of narrative fragments unblended and open and deriving meaning from what we think we know refusing to consider what we shutter to create a story and a history.
Kranicke's work Shadows Across Our Eyes, performed with Zephyr member Molly Fe Strom, is highly abstract, yet open to myriad images and ideas. Neon lines in tension cut the space, iconic stand-offs back away and move into active self-bindings, outwardly focused mind states morph into inward unknowable personas. The dancers both acknowledge and lose track of each other through a variety of narrative fragments, bodies squatting, lunging, suspended, assessing, confused, and fragile. The work creates an atmosphere of tension as Kranicke and Strom move through the piece balancing their task of executing movement while encumbered and restrained, hands bound and wearing heels. Shadows Across Our Eyes continues Kranicke's interest in aesthetic investigations of the interaction between dance and architecture. Enhancing the choreography is lighting by Richard Norwood and costumes by Amanda Lee Franck.
