COMPOSED features two distinctly different views of chaos and order and the effect they have on the human spirit:

Chiaroscuro, which is the interplay of light and shadow, focuses on the inner landscape of the mind. Choreographer and founding member of BCD Kristyn McGeehan examines the moments of darkness in the psyche and the struggle to control the chaos of that internal battle. McGeehan brings those invisible forces that provoke anxiety and depression to life as dancers manipulate one another on stage, unraveling the struggle between the conscious and the subconscious. “The moments of darkness that occur when facing an emotional dilemma have the power to strengthen an individual, which ultimately produces a beautiful lightness in the soul and extends outward into the world”, McGeehan notes.

4.3.5., choreographed by Joanna Brooks, Artistic Director of BCD, explores those external elements of the world that appear chaotic but are actually composed of precise structures and order, often overlooked by the eye. Brooks uses models in nature which are described by deterministic equations and fractal theory to inspire her choreography. “Branching veins, dried mud flats and the surface of the skin create patterns that continue to evolve”, Brooks explains. “I tried to create a choreographic visualization of these mathematical equations to illustrate the order that appears from the seeming chaos in the world”.
