Lauren Lavitt
Hortwets
Duration: 9.30 min.
Production year: 2005

Statement
Hortwets explores sexual identity and haptics. The relationship of figures and landscapes are sapped in and out of each other while inter playing grotesque movements. The color and composition are adapted from notions of painting and sculpture. Hortwets is choreographed to music mixed from David Kendall and Aphex twin.
