BATTLEGROUND at ADF
October 11, 2024 — Durham, NC
We will premiere our newest creation Battleground at the American Dance Festival this coming fall. Battleground is choreographer Carl Flink’s newest work, influenced by the physicality of Bodystorming, a technique he developed with biomedical engineer David Odde, and Flink’s intellectual curiosity surrounding war, violence, and its impact on the human body. A provocative, physical, and innovative piece grounded in science, ballistic movement, and the ethical and physical consequences of violence and perpetual war, it is intended to encourage meaningful conversations about violence in its many forms as an accepted and often celebrated component of our society.
Battleground will be performed outdoors in a 30×25 feet dirt pit.

The Moving Cell Project
Year 14
It’s hard to believe but Black Label's pioneering collaboration with biomedical engineer David Odde will enter it’s fourteenth year in 2023. The project is funded in part by the National Cancer Institute and continues to offer bodystorming workshops in various venues from high schools to the Minnesota State Fair. We continue to explore new ways for scientists and artists to conduct substantive research together.
