Description
Building on Jean Rosenthal’s iconic idea that “dancers live in light as fish live in water,” this session explores how lighting can transform and deepen the impact of dance. We’ll break down the core elements of lighting design—color, angle, intensity, and timing—and discover how each can influence movement, shape space, and evoke emotion. Through examples, discussion, and practical insight, participants will gain a clearer understanding of how lighting can enhance storytelling, sharpen intention, and support the body’s expression in motion.
