Ms. Garnica, a Colombian artist, also presented “A Timeless Kaidan,” a three-part work featuring video and installation by Mr. Moriya. Referring to the Japanese word kaidan, which can mean scary story or staircase, the production “is a metaphor for my reflection to the staircase of human ambition,” as Ms. Garnica described it in her program notes. Of the three sections, the first was quite beautiful, largely because of the way projections turned a maze of fabric into shimmering water. (Behind it was a staircase; through the billowy material, it seemed as if the dancers were hovering ghosts.) But for all its passion, the meandering production lost its way, a victim of too many ideas.
