PERPETUAL MOTION
TICKETS NOW ON 
SALE






Perpetual Motion Dance is currently creating an original concert of modern and aerial dance entitled Fault Line in collaboration with filmmaker Kyle Van Odsol that will feature the company's signature blend of stunning visuals and technical ingenuity. The concert will take place May 15th-16th 8:00pm and May 17th 2:00pm at the Oklahoma Contemporary Arts Center.  Fault Line will explore the metaphor of seismic shifts by creating an eight by eight foot wall of boxes that will be deconstructed into multiple platforms. Kyle Van Osdol will integrate 3-D projection mapping onto these platforms, reflecting the seismic activity occurring below our feet. Aerial apparatuses such as a horizontal ladder and harnesses will lift the performance off the ground and into the air. The choreography for Fault Line will be created by director Michelle Moeller, company choreographers Stephanie Crosby, Kayla Jenkins, and Amy Nevius and artist in residence Amy Querin of Fresno Dance Collective. 

Perpetual Motion Dance was awarded the Mid-America Arts Alliance "Artistic Innovations" grant for the creation Fault Line, one of only three awarded in the state of Oklahoma.  The company was also awarded a matching grant from the Oklahoma Arts Council to assist in funding Perpetual Motion's concert. Through state appropriations and grants from the National Endowment for the Arts, the Oklahoma Arts Council funds over 1,200 events annually with an estimated total attendance of over 3.5 million. Projects funded by the Oklahoma Arts Council generally account for over $20 million in grants and matching funds distributed throughout Oklahoma's economy throughout the state's rural and urban communities. 

THANK YOU's


We would like to send a huge thank you to Edward K. Van Osdol of  Oklahoma City, Ok for creating our 2015 "FAULT LINE" promo video!  Kyle Edward Van Osdol (pictured above) is an Oklahoma based digital media artist who deals with organic and technology based themes. His unique eye for detail has allowed him the ability to focus more on the composition as a photograph in order to seamlessly create a verisimilitude between technology and plausibility. Kyle primarily utilizes a 3D canvas in which to create his pieces. Equip with only a mouse and a keyboard, he is able to conjure fantasy and make it a reality.
