21.7. Performance with Andrew Wass/Lower Left
Originally formed in 1994 in San Diego, Lower Left Performance Collective is dedicated to the spontaneous combustion inherent in the collaborative process. Choosing to rely on the combined artistic vitality of its members in both artistic and organizational aspects, Lower Left’s collective model and the resulting innovation and openness have become their trademark. Lower Left’s choreographic work deals with personal, social and political issues using original movement vocabulary that is created collaboratively as well as individually. Performance works range from technical, highly physical dances to complex theatrical multimedia dance plays. Performances travel across the spectrum of deliberation, from the highly predetermined to the spontaneously composed. Lower Left members live in three different time zones on two different continents. Margaret Paek - Appleton, WI, Nina Martin - Marfa and Fort Worth, TX, Leslie Scates - Houston, Texas ; Shelley Senter - New York; Andrew Wass and Kelly Dalrymple-Wass - Berlin.
