a dialectic of dark and light

a dialectic of dark and light is a performance work by jaamil that explores contrast, perception, and the tensions held between opposing forces. Through movement and performance, the work considers darkness and light as interconnected states rather than fixed opposites.

Premiering at the Movement Research Fall Festival at Judson Church in New York in 2015, the work was later presented at BRIC in Brooklyn in 2016. It stands as part of jaamil's continuing exploration of the body, identity, and the complex spaces between visibility and obscurity.
