Deanna Peters & Less San Miguel

Combining our experiences in street, club and stage dance, we’re investigating what happens when we turn our gazes to each other, to dance with and for each other. What arises from an intimate state of seeing and being seen? How does a focus on one another invite others to see us?

Through activities like sharing breath, carrying each other and caring for each other, we’re creating strategies that enable us to witness, anticipate and empathize with each other in co-creation and co-performance.

Our aim is to reorient our gazes by positioning ourselves as simultaneously performers-viewers, givers-receivers, followers-initiators.
