dance piece created by Silvana Cardell in collaboration with Senior Modern Dance Majors at The University of the Arts, Philadelphia. The state of things, the present time

This piece, inspired in Marcel's Dzama 's drawings, defines the life and the actions of his canvas's characters. In The state of things, the present moment the dancers create moving environments. The stage floor, in this piece is treated as a canvas., movement and actions are defined by this specific use of the floor and the space where gravity is constantly challenged. The floor becomes a wall, a place for the characters to wander. Among them there is a guitar player, one lady walking her dog , the other lady on crutches , a cheering crowed, a circus trio, a group of crying masked ladies , an armed girl , nurses and ghosts, archers, hunters, and many stuffed animals. Constantly changing the point of view, this piece blurs the boundaries between visual art, movement, and performance.
