The Walker Art Center hired me to photograph Merce Cunningham’s Field Dances. The Dances are based on the movements of children he observed at a playground.    At the Walker Art Center I photographed the workshop where volunteers were taught five interactive movements and then joined by a corps of professional dancers to perform the piece.
