Subject In Two Parts (2008) was created in collaboration with director Greg Giovanni and dancers Meg Foley, John Luna, Lorin Lyle, and Rebecca Sloan. Subject in Two Parts is a study of the performative nature of identity and the fragmented and slippery subject that is created by continuous exposure to media and mediation. Bridge and fellow dancers invoke figures as diverse as performance artist Carolee Schneeman, the mother of writer William S. Burroughs, and cultural icon Marilyn Monroe to create a work that is funny, dark, sexy, and smart.
