Chorégraphe/Choreography Lara Kramer
Fragments is a Contemporary Dance piece which was first inspired by my mother's stories of the Indian Residential Schools in Canada. It gives voice to the many stories I've heard throughout my life and conveys a personal interpretation of the Indian Residential Schools.
Fragments expresses, in a poetic form, the silent emotions and experiences of the young girls who attended the schools. It is not an attempt to retell any one story, but rather to process the knowledge of these schools. The project aims to build a dialogue around a history too often ignored.
