‘Arcadia’ is an original short film by mignolo dance. We shot the project in January of 2021 at 10PRL in Long Branch, NJ, with this photo shoot taking place after about five hours of filming. The piece itself is a relatively mysterious one, and I believe spontaneity was a large part of mignolo’s concept for the piece. I remember telling Charly and Eriel that I pictured the piece taking place in the hollowed out trunk of an old tree, with the dancers miniaturized in Keebler elf fashion. While that probably doesn’t come across in these photos, I bet you’ll get what I mean if you have the fortune of seeing the whole piece or yourself. For the curious, HERE is a link to a preview of the piece.
