Study for “residue” no. 1 "residue" is a solo, directed and performed by Sharon Mansur, inspired in part by "pentimento," an underlying trace image in a painting that has been covered over, reflecting an artist’s change of mind. This video was put together as an improvised* study of some of the elements of the work, for a future project, creating a version of this work specifically for the camera. * the elements were spontaneously presented, and there was no preplanning of shots or multiple "takes."

Trailer: The Chemistry of Lime Trees Promotional/teaser video for "The Chemistry of Lime Trees," a performance combining the realism of theater with the physicality of dance. The impact of real or perceived borders in our lives is explored through two factual, historical stories. One of those stories is of Bosko and Admira, a real-life Romeo and Juliet during the Bosnian War of the 1990s, and how their struggle against societal, religious and political borders eventually lead to a tragic end. https://vimeo.com/59454678 ...
