"Waves" Goes the Wrong Direction in Racial Depiction, Despite Its Intent and Beauty
Spoiler Warning
The Growing Edge
When a father and child go riding on vacation, the boy’s horse begins to gallop, and he falls. The father insists that he get back on, but the child remains on the ground. The Growing Edge blurs the boundaries between choreography and storytelling, exploring the theatrical and staged, the fictional and dreamlike within autobiography. It reflects on the portrayal of lived queer and trans experiences as both personal and political narratives. Set to an eerie soundtrack by music producer rRoxymore, The Growing Edge unfolds as a tender and empathetic dialogue — a dance between past and present memories, timelines, and experiences.
