Collective identity is explored in depth kinetically and temporally arriving at a pallet of movement that is both original and engaging.

About the Work

Reflection House, investigates the intertwining sociological theories of collective identity and collective self by incorporating movement and media to represent time, personal choice, and acts of belonging. It brings forward questions of individuality, and how people measure their choices of inclusion. If the choice is to belong, how do we belong physically to a group, an individual, the universe, or ourselves?  Is there a degree of illusion about independent choice or the desire for independent succession?
