    AMY SEIWert’S IMA| GERY SKETCH 5 Stirred World Premieres by Amy Seiwert & KT Nelson achel Furst; Photo by David DeSilva. David by Photo achel Furst; R Photo: ImageryPhoto: Artist July 16-19, 2015 asimagery.org Co-Presented by ODC Theater • 3153 17th Street, San Francisco, CA 94110 Dear Patron, Thank you so much for choosing to come to Amy Seiwert’s Imagery’s SKETCH 5. By doing so, you have supported live arts which, in of it itself, is important. But more than that, you have chosen to participate in a unique program. Each year, Amy identifies a theme and invites stunning artists, that she thinks have a pertinent message, to create dances for Bay Area audiences -- dancers, choreographers and composers that we wouldn’t otherwise be exposed to. This year, in Sketch 5 | Stirred, IMAGERY is mixing it up. Seiwert has been collaborating with ODC co-artistic director KT Nelson on a new work. The artists edited each other’s work and interrupted each other’s process, in hopes of discovering something entirely new. This type of collaboration is extremely rare in ballet, and completely new to Seiwert. During an intensive creative process in residence at Zaccho Studio, Seiwert and Nelson worked together on creating a series of solos that explore the theme of isolation. The choreographers addressed questions such as: How does one consider the idea of isolation when not in isolation? How does it feel to be isolated in community? Finally, given the choreographers’ different working styles and aesthetics, an inherent focus of the project was the relationship between process and content.
