In 2014, the LRP team captured ODC/Dance and collaborators' creation of a piece called Speaking Volumes, a site-specific dance on Alcatraz Island, as part of the Ai Weiwei exhibit @Large. Loren also captured and edited highlight videos for ODC's Invention of Wings and Dead Reckoning during their 2015 home season, Dance Downtown, at YBCA.
Watch and be reminded of this stalwart company's capacity for exquisite production and the dancers' ability to evoke humanity from the simplest to most full bodied movement!
