She wanted to use visual technologies in ways that were new to the dance world.<br \/>\nNow, after 4 years of work and exploration by 7 dancers, one videographer and a composer, plus a lighting designer, and after residencies at MASS MoCA, Collins Art Center, the Garde Theater and Williams College, Drowned arrives at the Miller Theater in New York. \u00a0It\u2019s a love story (two, actually),\u00a0a story of\u00a0death, resurrection and transformation.\u00a0It stretches the boundaries of dance, theater, music, and multi-media to make a narrative that is mythic, violent &#8230;\u00a0and beautiful.<br \/>\nThe premiere of\u00a0<em>Drowned<\/em>\u00a0takes place at the Miller Theater in New York, from January 9-11, 2015.

Kernan, who started his working life in theater before turning to photography, made a photographic\u00a0rehearsal diary\u00a0that traces the creation of the work\u00a0from the first meeting in his studio\u2014where they made images and projected them onto everything, including each other\u2014to the last working rehearsals just before Christmas.
