About The Event
Created by Montreal choreographer Dana Gingras for her company Animals of Distinction, Frontera is a large-scale multimedia dance and music event. Set in an audio-synchronized field of light with projections designed by UK-based United Visual Artists, 10 dancers fearlessly engage in choreography that questions what space remains for the unruly, ungovernable body in an era of accelerated climate change, mass migration, and corporate surveillance. Montreal experimental-rock band Fly Pan Am accompanies the dancers live, performing a commissioned score awash in slashing guitars, psychedelic swirls, and motorik beats.
