A behind-the-scenes view of Kinetic Light artists Alice Sheppard and Laurel Lawson, suspended high above the stage and facing one another. Each performer is seated in a wheelchair, harnessed, and attached to a rigging system of cables and truss that spans diagonally between two metal towers. At the center, the performers meet where the rigging lines converge into a barbed wire tubing, forming a striking X-shape against the darkened stage.
