With support from the California Arts Council, Capacitor will continue operations developing and presenting performances at the intersection of dance, sculpture and science as well as developing our educational Dance STEM curriculum focused on girls to connect and empower them to pursue creative careers in Science and Engineering.
Capacitor has developed a niche for melding the performing arts with the sciences and new technologies. Sometimes called the “Cirque du Soleil of Environmental Science,” the company reflects the elements of technology, science, environmental conservation, expressive movement, and spectacular feats of flexibility, agility, and athletics that we meticulously integrate into our work. Lomask designs movement sculptures out of steel, bungee, fiberglass, silicone, and wood, with vivid projected visuals and transformative costumes. In the spirit of scientific inquiry, Capacitor uses a laboratory-style creative process, called Capacitor Lab. We assemble a cross-disciplinary team of artists, scientists, and technologists to explore a specific concept, find common threads, and create a shared vocabulary. From this collaboration a performance is born, taking us and our audiences to unexpected places.
