TRACES

TRACES

Conceived, Performed, Filmed, Edited by Shira Zaid

Musical Improvisation by Hannah Desrosiers

The world passes by in streams of color. Coating us from head to toe. Sinking into every pore. Eventually it washes away. And only traces remain. 

TRACES is a short screen dance set in the woods of Northampton, Massachusetts, the middle of the stratosphere and everywhere all at once. It is a meditation, a reflection, a self exploration, of what it means to exist as a changing person, in a changing body, in a changing world. What traces do we hold onto and what pieces become a part of us, what inevitably drifts away?
