Filmed on location in and around the City Hall of Nevadaville, Colorado, a gold mining town established in 1859 which is now a ghost town.

Sedimented Here
2020 / USA / 7 min
This short dance film shot in Moab, Utah (United States), explores relationship between the moving body and outdoor environment, asking, “What movement belongs here?” The dancers immerse themselves in the red rock, water, and sand as the perspective shifts from intimate close-ups to grandiose panoramas, bringing the viewer into this physical desert world.
