Some concerts demand lasers. The music played
determines the color of the laserset. For her it worked nicely when combined
with corresponding lights. Her trademark was to create a moiré pattern
out of overlapping sets of lights. The intensity and brilliance made the
audience hear the music faster. Right before it was played, they could anticipate
the chord, the tune and the balance of the forces. Her trick was that she
could enliven the lights by pointing at the direction they’d shoot
with her fingers. When she wanted the moiré effects to be present,
she’d open both hands and make her 5 fingers overlap with those belonging
to the other hand. One could say that the whole lighting or laser design
for the performance was created by her own dance or performance. Her body
was becoming a tool, an instrument or a device causing the whole aura, atmosphere,
exaltation, sometimes even panic among the audience. Her design worked differently
when she worked indoor, then when she was covering the space surrounding
an outdoor stage. The beams she shoot seemed to reach the stars. This is
why she’d never agree to design on a cloudy night.
