The Master's Level Graduate Research Conference is supported by the Office of Graduate Studies.
The creative process of designing a dance is developed through an investigation of thought-provoking movements performed by dancers, who utilize different levels of space; high, middle, and low. Choreographers discover dynamic spatial qualities within composition by incorporating varying levels of space, in which he/she may choose to choreography exclusively on the low level. This study will examine the rationale behind my choreographic choices for choosing to explore dance creation, specifically on ground level. I will research the art of choreography through modern dance history, journal about my emotional pressures affecting my choreography, and question psychological influences, exploring why I have an affinity for creating movements that bond with Earth’s solid foundation. The end result will unveil why I choose, consciously and unconsciously, to choreography on the low level.
