“Noli Timere” is an aerial performance featuring eight dancers moving within and around Echelman’s custom-made net, reaching up to 25 feet in the air.
In "Noli Timere," eight dancers move in and around sculptor Janet Echelman's custom-made net.
“Noli Timere” stemmed from “Net tOpologies and Dance Explorations” (NODES), a research initiative funded by Princeton University and creativeX, and led by Rebecca Lazier, Sigrid Adriaenssens, and Janet Echelman.
“There are eight dancers, but there are four additional professionals who work behind the stage to dance the sculpture like a marionette,” explained Echelman.
Lazier and Echelman hope to continue showcasing “Noli Timere” around the globe.
