Dancer Kenneth Emig explores the liminal spaces, thresholds, and boundaries in Cheryl Pagurek’s States of Being interactive installation, where his inquisitive movements synthesize the videos and compose the soundscape. During a time when relationships are constantly changing between ideas of public and private, individual and collectivity, inside and outside, safety and threat, distance and togetherness, he uniquely expresses our precarious human condition amidst the fluctuating states of being we strive to balance as we navigate new limits. Composer Jesse Stewart created the musical tracks in the installation. Jean-Claude Batista developed the installation’s custom software.
