I had the pleasure of documenting Marie-Gabrielle Rotie's Butoh class recently. Photographing the sculptural forms created by the dancers, I was struck by the poignancy of their calm surrender to gravity.
"Butoh is an act of transformation, a process by which the performer
searches for a state of becoming."
