Interview

Christopher Kaui Morgan gazes off to the side, smiling serenely in a studio that radiates warmth. Outfitted in various shades of blue, his hands rest gently on his hips in the pockets of a navy cardigan, as his weight shifts over to one leg. He is an image of confident grace, wearing chunky high-heeled boots that add a splash of exuberance to his professional demeanor.

January, 2025. Lisa Kraus dances solo at Tictac Art Centre. Facing stage left, Kraus crosses her left thigh behind her right. Her knees meet. The tops of her left toes press into the ground as her right heel lifts in a demi releve. Kraus releases her sternum to the sky, elbows pulled back, forearms lifted, face tipped toward the ceiling.

Kraus takes on the role ‘missionary for dancing forever’

It’s 1986. Lisa Kraus, positioned slightly to the right of center of the image, falls to the side over one ankle, the other leg outstretched behind her. She raises her arms upward and lifts her head back, hair flying behind her. She dances in a spotlight on a mat on the floor that reads “DESERT ISLAND” in all capital letters. The image, captured by acclaimed dance photographer Lois Greenfield, is in black and white.
