C³ (Camille Cubed) is a contemporary dance work that explores curious circumstances imposed by strange objects. You are invited to witness a dancer’s tactile journey as she moves steadily through an unpredictable pathway in space, in which she encounters these unfamiliar objects – their sharp edges, uneven surfaces, level changes, and relative scale. Camille meets the objects’ angularity with her own softness and secret power; she keeps you in a state of anticipation as you witness her, and acknowledges moments of ambiguity with knowing glances. Images form and slowly morph as she finds points of teetering balance, moments of uncertainty, and expansion. C³ is a choreographic expansion that asks: “what is possible with what I have?”, and “where will I let it take me?”.
It is an exploration of personal and environmental limitations, and a carving of one’s own way.
