Video stills from CONFUSION OF ANGELS

The Michele Brangwen Dance Ensemble's short film made at the Rothko Chapel, Houston TX, with choreography by Michele Brangwen and music by Thomas Helton, in collaboratuon with Director of Photography Yunuen Perez Vertti.

One of the challenges of choreography is finding an appropriate balance between the literal and the allegorical, and Michele Brangwen's Confusion of Angels finds that balance. It lets us be unseen witnesses to a literal ceremony full of grace, lyricism and especially light amidst the darkness, yet it also teases us into guessing the precise nature of that ceremony. Part Hellenistic in costume, part Hindu in movement, and universally radiant in impact, Confusion of Angels invites us into a spiritual moment that ultimately forms inside ourselves.”
