project whimsey in chicago

EMBODY:  IT'S WHAT WE HAVE TO WORK WITH  was performed by the LUNA TROOP dance company in chicago over the weekend.  the whimsey project offered an opportunity for the audience to become active participants during the performance with the piece, BODYWORKS.

each member of the audience was given a card that depicted a muscle of the body and what area of the body that muscle was connected to.  audience members then gathered on the dance floor and stood in the "correct" place to correspond with that of the body.  after every body was in place and adjustments were made, photographs were taken.  a portrait of a human body composed of bodies featuring the part of the body that helps the body work.....muscles!    

(the whimsey project thanks the LUNA TROOP for being included in this performance......)
