| 05:00 pm - 07:30 pm

Join The Georgia Review for this free public event. Since 2020, Rebecca Pappas and her collaborators have been developing My Body as the Topic Coming Around Again, a three-volume dancework that unravels the tangled threads of white womanhood and American modern dance. Centered around Land, (In)Visibility, and Care, these dances traverse dualities of freedom/control; sincerity/satire; tenderness/violence; beauty/monstrosity.

The project utilizes “dance wrecking,” a practice of choreographic feedback created by American choreographer Susan Rethorst.
