The Annotated IAM by Radha Chaddah

Описание: Enjoy this annotated version of IAM with artist’s explanation of the work.

From the Latin for ‘now’, IAM (ee-yam) is a story told through dance and light about perspectives in pandemic times. Dancers perform in nature amid projected imagery, as the film follows the story of the pandemic through four different material realms, from the molecular to the body, the earth, and finally the cosmos.
