A trio, with two women and one man, presents the dance phrases that are the main themes of the work. The pas de deux has the dancers moving swiftly through interlocking sculptural shapes and exchanging weight in off-centered ways still uncommon in ballet. The mutual support colors the drama. King is given to pithy, almost aphoristic utterance. Style is the fallout of what you're trying to say.
Dance is thought made visible.
To King, dance has meaning. Love is stronger than hate. If you fall down, get up. Joy and information can come from the most bitter situation. Heightened awareness is a goal - we should feel the air molecules all around us.
