As part of Duke Performances’ virtual fall season, Choreographer, Stefanie Batten Bland’s dance film CURRENT explores a new work created for camera. Working from upstate NY, through river tributaries, Batten Bland marshals an intimate configuration of her company to explore underlining historical and present day directional up/ downstate tensions in the region during the pandemic. CURRENT presented a unique design opportunity to create costumes that would be filmed in various biospheres. The costumes had to work aesthetically on land and in the water.
