Ultrasound Dance

Multimedia dance performance

Co-presented by UNE Art Gallery and SPACE Gallery, 2024

Directed by Amelia Garretson-Persans and choreographed by Dana Dotson Music by Michael Huff Dancers - Dana Dotson, Jen Hoffer, and Matea Mills-Andruk

Ultrasound Dance used light, choreography and music to elevate the intensely personal experience of the ultrasound. This human-scale representation was presented as part of UNE Art Gallery Biddeford’s exhibition "Light and Shadow: Motherhood, Creativity, and the Discourse of Ability".

“Though the heavy moments of medical imaging experience are often hushed and marginalized, this hypnotic experimental dance piece grants us the freedom of reflection and the challenge of re-confrontation with shrouded somatic memories.”
