Poetical Transformation –Intensive–

We are interested in transformation, change, and poetics. How do we
create and navigate in the landscape of our dancing in a
creative, poetical way? How do we give space for things to happen and
recognize the spaces in-between? Change from soft and light touch into
a fleshy, rough wrestle while breathing together the weather of our
dance?

The work is based on the Japanese concept of “ma” which means to be IN
BETWEEN. Ma is the moment between the end of a movement and before the
beginning of the next one. It’s also the space between the dancer and
the floor or between two dancers. It means emptiness and space between
objects. Ma can be very dense, different than the other space around
the dancer.

We explore the connection between our inner states and space that we
share, becoming aware of the interaction between them. Through dancing
we can breathe our personal weather into the atmosphere of the room,
and finally into the climate of the whole festival.
