Entangled, or Adventures of
Time Traveler in the Quantum World

Entangled, or Adventures of Time Traveler in the Quantum World, is a solo dance piece which I choreographed and performed at Studiodance 2025 as my MFA Thesis. Drawing inspiration from the absurdist opera, Black Square, and quantum physics phenomena, I deconstructed the principles of ballroom partnering, and reapplied them to connect with multiple copies of myself projected on screen. Trading roles, dancing together and apart, I created movement patterns resembling those of quantum particles observed experimentally in physics laboratories, thus giving the viewer both the glimpse to secrets of leading and following in a ballroom partnership, and interactions between particles in a quantum world.

Strongly Correlated Bodies

Strongly Correlated Bodies was choreographed for the School of Theatre Arts students from Illinois Wesleyan University for their annual dance concert. This piece investigates the concept of emergence, where collective properties and behaviors (partnerships) arise from the interactions of individual components (solo dancers), forming traits that individual parts do not possess on their own.

Our style is characterized by fluid role switching where the assigned roles of leader and follower disappear altogether.
