In 2026, Dance Reflections by Van Cleef & Arpels is supporting Southbank Center for the presentation of Colossus by Stephanie Lake. 

From darkness they emerge, a dizzying mass of pulsating bodies. The push and pull of humanity is embodied by this heaving throng of life, but can a crowd be more than the sum of its parts?

As complex patterns ripple through the flood of figures, a single movement triggers a chain reaction wheeling the fragile whole from chaos to order.

This riveting, hypnotic dance work explores relationships between the individual and the collective, solitary striving and joyous union, with a cast of 60 performing as one.
