A Thousand Rainbows

Lia Chavez deepens her exploration of performance- generated imagery in this recent photographic series, which uncovers the stunning, surreal parallels between heavenly bodies and earthly ones. Disorienting, unsettling, and strangely beautiful, A Thousand Rainbows is a body of work which delves into the material and spiritual essence of relationship through the vehicle of improvisational dance. According to Chavez, ""From observing the physical universe, we know that form is the manifestation of relationship between two forces. By way of various contemporary dance strategies, I recreate this dialectical drama - between myself and my model - within the microcosm of my studio in order to probe objects hidden within deep inner space.""
