Projects for the Living
(2015) Brown, Robin Neveu; Mansur, Sharon; Dance; Digital Repository at the University of Maryland; University of Maryland (College Park, Md.)
This paper is a means of documenting my MFA dance thesis project, Projects for the Living, including insights into the inception, research phase, choreographic process, design, collaborations, and final performances. Additionally, this document provides a look into the lasting questions this project has brought up for me, as well as thoughts on its place within the context of my full three years as a graduate student of dance at the University of Maryland, and how it has affected me overall as a student, educator, artist, and simply as a human being.
Women's Work & Other Stories
(2009) Foster, Angella Paulette; Rosen, Meriam; Dance; Digital Repository at the University of Maryland; University of Maryland (College Park, Md.)
Born and raised in the Kentucky, Angella Foster explores her kinship with the strong women who shaped the land and the character of her home state with their bare hands. Inspired by her grandma's stories of growing up the daughter of sharecroppers, Women's Work captures the rhythm of daily labor and explores the emotional landscape of an imagined community of women in rural Kentucky. The piece also features an original sound score composed and performed live by School of Music students.
