About Elsewhere

​​Set in the coral sand dunes of Utah, Elsewhere is an analog film study shot on Kodak Ektachrome Super 8mm film. The grainy image and unstable frame follow an out-of-place contemporary body who wears a dystopian suit of modern architecture. The film was created one afternoon on a cross-country road trip during the first summer of Covid.

About Tori Lawrence

Tori is a New England-based choreographer, filmmaker, and educator who creates site-specific multimedia performances and digital/analog dance films. Her environmentally-based work inspires an imaginative and sustainable way of looking at, thinking about, and using space. Her site-specific choreography has been presented nationally and internationally, including three commissions by the Barnes Foundation in Philadelphia, where she created Holding Place, an evening-length multimedia performance featuring acclaimed Brooklyn-based musicians Bing & Ruth. The work was created in response to the architecture of the Barnes’ new Philadelphia campus. Philadelphia Weekly describes her site-specific work as “poignant,” “stunning,” and “arresting.”
