Description
Angsters was originally choreographed as an upbeat display of movement inspired by the anxieties of modern-day life, where performers embody concerns of the dancer, including time (or lack thereof), technique, criticism, and voice/perspective. The filmmakers decided to explore these concepts further by setting the work in site-specific locations that incorporate large-scale exterior sculpture and paintings in the Houston area. By incorporating these dynamic backdrops for the performance piece, Angsters draws a connective thread through the fine arts of music, dance, and visual art, ultimately bringing to light the anxieties and pressures of the modern artistic mind.
