scrim

1 We take our personal histories with us when we travel, fitting them like a scrim onto scenes that are new.

2 She sang and sometimes danced on a stage whose stark design, softened by flowing white scrims, suggested a production of “Waiting for Godot.”

3 “I remember when I saw it, the scrim in the back is a beautiful blue, so we decided with the crystals on the tutus we’d use a little blue.”

4 You can see the lights in adjacent cubicles through the scrims as if through a heavy fog.

5 The orchestra started its overture as lights on the scrim revealed a tableau at Covent Garden.

6 Moments later, the stage darkens and other figures appear in front of and behind the scrim.

7 And having a dancer trace her own moving outline on the front scrim is too obvious a representation of the futility of capturing time’s flow.

8 She’d said nothing to him about the abortion, and it sat between them like a scrim, blurring everything.

9 The scrim certainly softened the atmosphere of the scene, which takes place at dawn near a tollgate in Paris.

10 Whereas Hannah describes violent scenes in terms of splashing gore and protruding bone fractures, the erotic moments take place behind a scrim of metaphorical verbiage:

11 “Song I,” projected on a big, circular scrim, is a variation on 2012’s outdoor projection on the facade of Washington, D.C.’s doughnut-shaped Hirshhorn Museum.

13 To be a scrim for the world’s projections, it helps to be a little hard to read.

14 A spoon-shaped extension reaches into the audience, while a translucent scrim shows video images.

15 Irwin transformed an abandoned U-shaped hospital building using black and white scrim, turning it into a vessel of sorts that responds to the shifting and changing light.

16 For centuries, images of it were in the hands of male artists and often filtered through a scrim of mythology and religion.

17 With projections on movable scrims and rear screens, fascinating 3-D effects are created that are immersive without seeming completely real.

18 The production, directed by Pier Francesco Maestrini, uses scrims and screens to project videos that depict dense forests, cliffs and waterfalls.

19 What at first appears to be a roofless ruin seen through a scrim of lindens is a walled patio designed by Mr. Van Valkenburgh’s team.

20 During the orchestral prelude we see through a scrim the death of the Bailiff’s wife acted out in silence, or at least her death as Mr. Eyre imagines it.
