Warsaw: Centre for Contemporary Art, ul. Jazdów 2
"Five dancers active on the Berlin and Warsaw stages, invited to collaborate on improvisation, develop a practice focused on the question of changeability. They explore different levels of consciousness, mindfulness and performatics, moving between the real and the imagined, between dance and stillness, playing with emotionality, physicality, the meaning of gestures, and with space and time composition. How can the performer use all the creative tools available, in order to create a unique, diverse, aesthetically unrestrained landscape into which they invite the audience? Five independent choreographers whose paths have crossed on many occasions, use this question as a pretext for a joyful exploration of improvisation, filled with curiosity and imagination."
“And so, we meet again, this time in Warsaw. Our paths have crossed many times. We worked for each other, with each other, on each other, next to each other... We tried to be in the same project, in vain. We are work colleagues, collaborators, roommates, friends and twins. We dream the same dreams. We are interested in each other and the opportunities offered by improvisation. We want to stretch it, break it, twist it, fight it and stay in it, turn it upside down, dissolve it completely and change it, follow it and give in to it. All our previous experience and rules learned, all the questions that we have, lead us bravely into the unknown.”
