kaleidoskop im nebel: on compressions & rarefactions

This is a movement research developed for the conference Construction of Perspective: New Choreographic Practices that took place at the Center for Contemporary Dance, Zagreb Dance Center, in March 2016. It experiments with deconstruction, fragmentation, temporality, and collapse. In the oscillatory choreographic wave, the spatial resistances of the dance studio act as a mediator, intercessor, and agent of structure, while providing pathways and memory for the process. The dance unfolds in tandem with the music, and both fracture into their own distinct architectures. Movements swell and are swept away, become visible or invisible, and are then assembled into a duration that can begin at any point and end in any silence.
