Still. Moving: The Cathedral as interpreted by Panoramic Dance Project

Watch as the Panoramic Dance Project from North Carolina State University offers a living response to The Cathedral by French sculptor Auguste Rodin, bringing choreographed motion to what was made to endure. This work is being interpreted by Christa Oliver, associate teaching professor and director of the Panoramic Dance Project. A brief talkback with Oliver and the dancers follows the performance.

About Still. Moving
This performance dance series explores the timeless works of the People’s Collection and loaned works through the lens of movement. Each object becomes a partner in a visual and physical dialogue as dancers interpret form, story, and silence with their bodies. Still. Moving reimagines the gallery as a stage where past and present meet and where the boundaries between objects and experience dissolve.
