Ms. Molina is so full of contradictory highlights that I don’t know where to start or stop. Every part of her body dances, often within the same phrase, as if in ricochets and crosscurrents, and she amalgamates melting softness with academic rigor, so that her most startlingly experimental moves look classical. Frequently she moves limbs and torso so as to oppose sharp angles with curved lines. Like a number of flamenco dancers over the years, she seems to be interested in the contractions and tensions of old-style modern dance, which she makes mint-fresh.
