“Family Portrait”

CCDI 2023-2024 Family Portrait is a darkly comic, acerbic exploration of the myth of the “perfect family.” Created in Atlanta, Georgia, during a choreographic residency at Georgia Tech, the piece follows a family attempting to capture an idealized portrait. Each camera flash jolts them into a mental space where hidden tensions surface, revealing absurdities, shadowed desires, and the unsettling truths that lie beneath the surface of every photograph. As the work unfolds, the tone shifts—becoming whimsical, airy, and deceptively light—yet the flashes continue to unearth the darker undercurrents, highlighting the fragile balance between appearance and reality. The youngest child ultimately embraces this chaos, guiding the family toward a moment of twisted harmony. Touches of red on each performer trace invisible bonds, a ritualistic nod to the rites of passage embedded within familial relationships, and a subtle warning: all is not as it seems. Blending satire, humor, and incisive social commentary, Family Portrait embodies the choreographer’s signature voice—comical, piercing, and profoundly human.
