John Jasperse Dance Company will develop an evening-length work, Canyon, for six dancers with a commissioned score by composer Hahn Rowe. The work will center on the transformative power of losing oneself in visceral experience, where the supremacy of the intellect is humbled through experience into a state of wonder. Generative ideas include engineered confusion, alternating sensory overload and spaciousness, fractured connectivity, and rapture.
