Choreographers Susan Dickson-Matsunami and Amy Herrman have created their works as responses to Therman Statom’s installation Nascita. Both pieces will feature dancers moving throughout the installation space, interacting with the painted, transparent and mirrored surfaces of the gallery-filling artwork.
