Kun-Yang showed his latest choreographic work to Pallabi to allow her to have a sense of his artistry, movement capabilities and discuss how he creates a work.
The two talk about Gus' recent 16 verb prompt, which was in contrast to both Pallabi and Kun-Yang's typical processes for developing movement material. They decided to continue to work on the prompt together.
