Autumn Eckman

Bound-less

Autumn Eckman Dance explores how dance captures aspects of life's reflective nature represented by movement, design, and transformation. Each work is driven by collaborative endeavors that enrich the processes of choreography through interdisciplinary arts-exchanges within diverse communities. ‘Bound-Less” is the result of investigating how dance is placed into digital mediums; particularly how it might, as a communal art form, translate across boundaries of physical, mental and emotional distancing.

Untitled, No. 27

Anthony Alterio is currently on faculty in the Theatre & Dance Department as Assistant Professor of Dance at State University of New York (SUNY) at Fredonia. He began his professional dance training at The University of Colorado-Boulder, where he received a BA double-majoring in Dance and Psychology and went on to attain an MFA in Dance from the University of Michigan. Untitled, No. 27 is a work that relies on camera editing, music, and lights that all come together to then abstract and warp movement for the audiences' viewing pleasure. The piece was solely created to give viewers something to enjoy and something to dance along with. The concept and choreography were specifically thought out with the camera's gaze in mind.

TheCo ( Tec Dance Company ) 

32/30

Inspired by Romeo & Juliet's feuding families, 3230 reflects how we as a society sometimes have difficulty coming to terms with our differences and how that can prevent us from living peacefully with each other. Inspired by a classic story of rivalry, it definitely resonates with current issues, actual turbulent times, chaos and societal division. The literal title of this work, 3230 represents how the story starts with 32 individuals and ends with 30, with the deaths of Tybalt and Mercutio, but beyond that it shows us how violence and societal clash has hurt us all as a community.

Tec Dance Company, aka TheCo, is renowned university Tec de Monterrey’s dance company. TheCo is a high performance dance program that trains dancers in different genres
