Iorn Meets Water: New Conversations, EVIDENCE’s latest work set to original music by Grammy Award Winning composer Arturo O’Farrill, features five sections that allow the dancers to lead and follow each other into a space cleared for what is RIGHT. In each of the distinct sections - Clearing the Jungle, Iron Meets Water, Dance of the Elements, Elegua, and Free-play - the dancers perform contemporary and Afro-Cuban dance as an embodiment of O’Farrill’s music.
