MAKING SPACE
Now in its fourth year, Making Space is an annual performance produced by tbd. dance collective featuring a curated selection of choreographic works created by local, regional, and national movement artists. Often changing venues, choreographic guidelines, structure, and format - the purpose of this event is to provide a platform for movement artists to present their work, to explore the process of developing choreography, and to create connections among artists locally and cross regionally.
This year, Making Space was presented virtually in collaboration with OutrSpaces. The live streamed event featured 7 movement based works, created by 8 different artists. 4 of the movement based works were presented through pre-recorded short films, and 3 of the works were performed live in OutrSpaces during the live streamed event.
