Explore behind the scenes of the curtain for The Blake Works

San Francisco Ballet Scenic Artists David Dunn & Garrett Lowe take a small mock-up created by William Forsythe and scale it up to a show curtain 60 feet wide and 30 feet tall. For each project they tackle, David and Garrett invent new tools for the job, and this time was no different; watch to learn how they work in tandem to bring this large-scale piece of art to life.

The Blake Works is onstage Feb 27 – Mar 8
