Verve
Project Type
Dance Lighting Design
Location
UNC Charlotte - Charlotte, NC
Date
November 2023
Role
Lighting Designer
Inspired by the energy centers in the body called chakras, Verve was a conceptual piece about the creation of the universe and the journey toward enlightenment. This piece was very cosmic and ethereal. It didn’t have a physical location. I chose to use the full stage black, fog, and haze throughout this piece to transform the atmosphere of the stage.
