CLAIRE SERSUN

performed by Luciana Johnson

filmed by Rein Short

choreographed and edited by Claire Sersun

This is a dance film exploration into what it would be like to create without ever having met the collaborators in person. Rehearsal were held on zoom and the choreographer was separated from the filming process only to later choreograph with the film itself.
The resulting work explores the anxiety, confusion, resilience, strength and overall perseverance embraced during the covid-19 pandemic. It’s about finding the strength from within to keep going on.
