Acts of Holding Dance was heavily inspired by the academic writings of researchers Andre Lepecki and Anne McDonald who articulate the efficiency of dance as a communicator of mourning and loss through its ephemeral experience. Therefore, the stylistic intentions of capturing the dance that has passed in a ‘script-like’ manner emphasizes the fleetingness of time felt through dance. Featured in the work are five breakers from the 143 breakdancing community, Rachael Gunn, Samuel Free, Ota Kohey, Mathew Tsang and Duc Hoang. Although all are practitioners of breakdance, what is comparatively shown is the individuality that each breakdancer holds through the unique patterns and shapes they produce.
