SHE
SANK ON SHALLOW BANK
She
Sank on Shallow Bank is a collaborative project between Clifton Childree,
dancer/performance artist Nikki Rollason, and musician Daniel Hosker.
Using stop-motion animation, sculptural sets and dance, the film/installation
creates a disjointed narrative of the dreamlike psyche of a girl who has
washed upon the bank of a bay. The experience is inspired by early surrealistic
filmmaking and pushes the envelope of contemporary film/installation art,
as well as redefining ways to present dance.
Born in Miami, Nikki Rollason received her BFA in Dance from the New World
School of the Arts in 1997. In 2003 she received the Dance Miami Fellowship
and had her work presented in the Philadelphia Fringe Festival. In 2002
in collaboration with Kristin O'Neal she presented "Nutz-n-Boltz
in Fancy Pants" at the Miami Light Project Here and Now Festival.
Dan Hosker is a South Florida based musician who has been in many seminal
bands including the Holy Terrors, Harry Pussy and Doersam. In addition
to being a punk and noise pioneer, Hosker secretly creates classically
inspired compositions.
