Description (provided by the entrant):
Swan Lake is a ballet composed by Russian Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky in 1875. This classic tale tells the story of Odette, a princess turned into a swan by a curse from evil sorcerer Rothbart. Over 145 years later, this classic tale of reality and fantasy is reimagined as futuristic landscape composed of 24 laser projectors. In traditional presentations of Swan Lake, Rothbart is played by an on-stage actor. For our design, we imagined Rothbart as green laser light, and identified the moments in the composition where the evil Rothbart appears, the green laser becoming a character in itself.
