A dancer stands on one leg, in the foreground on the right side. Her other leg is curled up, sole of her foot against the standing leg's knee, and arms bend at the elbows, which are directed out to the side. Her hair hangs to the right of her face in a messy bun. Behind her and to the left is a live musician, playing a double base, basked in a green light. Both are on a black stage.

SÉQUELLES

Dance Matters | Toronto, 2016 

A marimba player stands behind her instrument, which is set up in front of a large white curtain. Projected onto the curtain is a shadow of a dancer, proportionally much larger than the instrumentalist, with her arms reaching up and crossing.

ON SCREEN

An image of Bettina's neck and fingers is mirrored in the centre, creating the illusion of fingers impossibly interwining on top of and into her neck.

SKIN

With Kayla Shears

Festival of Recorded Movement | Vancouver, 2021

Two black and white images of a Bettina Szabo are superimposed. In the foreground, a smaller image, centered and low, she faces away from the camera, touching the back of her hand to her forehead. Her dark hair is blowing gently in the wind, and she is wearing a tank top with thin straps. In the background, a larger image taking up the entre frame, she faces profile with her hand running through her hair. Her eyes are closed and her lips gently parted.
