When observing birds in flight, we marvel at the beauty, grace and precision of seemingly effortless movement, seldom thinking of the structure of the wings or the mechanics of executing complex aerial maneuvers. So it is with Dance, where the biomechanical principles of motion, force, momentum, leverage and balance make possible the expression of intense emotions, abstract ideas and complex stories in physical form. In this year’s Spring Dance Concert: Movement Mechanized, we explore the process of human locomotion through a collection of fresh, original works in a mix of dance styles, each composition a piece of kinetic art!
