Although I’ve never seen this dance in its entirety, An African Walk in the Land of China played a couple of years ago at Dance Camera West and is a wonderful reminder of how dance can unite foreign cultures to speak in a common language. In this just over one minute teaser, I love seeing the juxtaposition of different cultures with no reason or explanation whatsoever in the mere walk down a city street, or a gestural dance on restaurant tables at lunch time. Why shouldn’t dance happen whenever and wherever? In every gesture and movement, dance declares our aliveness, our humanness, our sameness, our otherness, and our collective consciousness in the face of this thing called LIFE.
Let the living continue out loud and in public!
