And Then… is a captivating dance performance that bridges the worlds of visual art with dance and movement. Inspired by selected works of visual art, this performance brings to life the exact moment portrayed in each artwork, exploring the enigmatic and surreal possibilities of what could happen next, most clearly conveyed through the dancer who responds to the subsequent unseen moment. The performance invites the audience to witness the unfolding of these visual stories, as each piece transitions from a moment frozen in time to a living, breathing continuation of the artist’s vision.
