A review of Annabelle Lopez Ochoa, Francois Rousseau and Julie Gardette by Graham Watts for DanceTabs.

Quote

Although the range of movement is necessarily limited by these severe spatial restrictions, Ochoa makes full use of every opportunity to provide the fullest range of options; solos, gestures in unison, partnered dance with lifts, even a twirl, and plenty of sensual touch. With one dancer on the sofa and another behind or lying on the floor in front, this furniture provides spatial perspective and layered levels and it also occasionally becomes a third “partner” offering a solid arm as a lifting prop or leverage and providing the context for myriad sculpted poses.
