Excerpts from "The Proximity of Being," a multimedia film collaboration. Created for Luminaria San Antonio 2016. Contemporary choreographed movement interprets every person's need for connection to others and solitude.

Filmed as it was presented when it premiered at Dignowity Park, this public art installation featured as many as 12 simultaneous video projection mapped onto multiple surfaces of a 9ft pyramid of cubes. The films included videography, special effects and stop motion animation for an absolutely mesmerizing experience.

Thanks to the Luminaria San Antonio and the many fans whose support and generous donations made this project possible.
