NOTE: Watch the video of Avi Scher & Dancers performing at the Kennedy Center here.
The Cambodian dancer Sokvannara Sar in rehearsal with choreographer Avi Scher for a performance at the Kennedy Center. Avi has created a solo entitled Garden Dance for Sy with references to traditional Cambodian dance forms and Kokyat was on hand to photograph a rehearsal on May 29, 2010. I'd love to see Avi expand on this allegro solo with one or two additional movements to show the breadth of Sy's artistry. As it stands now it is a beautiful snapshot of this charismatic dancer.
Here are Kokyat's images from the rehearsal (click to enlarge):
Sokvannara Sar is the subject of the film DANCING ACROSS BORDERS.
Additional images by Kokyat from this rehearsal here.
Wow! This looks wonderful. I want to see this!
