The Oval Portrait
Original Score by Dan Coleman

A Painted Devil
Original Score by Vin Calianno

Artifact Dance Project tells two stories of manipulation and malice. Artistic Director Claire Hancock premieres her adaptation of Thomas Cullinan's novel, A Painted Devil, about a Union soldier who finds himself in an all-female boarding house entangled with rivalries and jealousies in the Confederate South. Music by Vincent Calianno for strings, piano, percussion and electronics. Hancock remounts her version of Edgar Allan Poe's short story, "The Oval Portrait", about a painter who becomes so obsessed with creating a lifelike painting of his wife that he deprives her of real love in the process. Music by Dan Coleman for string quartet.
