DancEnlight Presents “Lines Beyond Form”
DancEnlight, a professional not for profit modern dance company, is proud to present the 2015 world premiere of "Lines Beyond Form" in the Hartford, CT area. Paul Klee’s metaphor, “A line is a dot that went for a walk” provides fuel for an artistic journey that tantalizes the imagination and challenges the limits of movement.

Our world is in many ways defined by lines, both real and abstract. The newest work by international artists and twins Lorelei Chang and Mai Nakanishi is a creative exploration of lines inspired, in part, by Paul Klee’s whimsical definition “A line is a dot that went for a walk.” Unlike many of Mondrian’s stark line paintings, dancEnlight uses lines as a springboard for invention, pushing the limits of movement in ways that will fascinate and delight viewers. Threads, a labyrinth, boundaries, lines of thought…all lend themselves to myriad interpretations and compelling possibilities.
"Lines Beyond Form" has been made possible in part through the sponsorship of the Hoffman Auto Group.
