Umbrella Dancers

Geometry-inspired Choreographed Art by Julie Tremblay

At first, these just look a bizarre installation of umbrella clumps, but if you saw Julie Tremblay's art piece in real life, you'd realize that encased within each black cluster is a person. Moving in a choreographed way, Julie Tremblay's 16 performers tumbled around in a performance she and Nana Francisca Schottländer called “Everything That Happens."

"The movements of the performers and their interactions with the “umbrella-spheres” opened up to wealth of metaphors, from birth to death and just about everything in between, where the spectator was welcome to create his/her own story," Design Year Book described.
