Cornelia Kip Lee, top, and Stephen Clapp perform an improvisational interpretive duet as Felix Vallotton’s ‘The Lie’ (1898) is projected on stage during ‘Out of Bounds: Limitation as a Doorway to Invention’ from Lee’s Dancing with Limitations performance series at the N.C. Museum of Art in Raleigh. Lee, whose left leg is underdeveloped because of polio, started dancing professionally more than 3 1/2 years ago. ‘As a child, I thought of myself as a cripple,’ Lee said. ‘It wasn’t until I accepted my limitations that I was able to transcend them.”
