Movement Migration Artistic Director Kim Jones recently curated a dance festival for the National Maritime Museum in London to celebrate the reopening of the Ocean Court, the museum’s largest indoor space. The festival, entitled “Rhythm! A Dance Celebration of the Ocean,” took place at the museum on July 12 and included two works choreographed by Jones.

Highlights include the premiere of Echoes Beneath the Surface, a modern dance duet by choreographer Jones, created for the unveiling of the museum’s new Ocean Map.

In the second piece, “Vitruvian Human: The Living Map,” eight dancers moved across the map, tracing unseen currents and shared inheritances.
