2020/2021 -  Playing Dead & Doing Time - work in process

Death and time are enormous topics and this new project digs into endings, perception and temporal progress with seriously unserious approach. Through research,  residency, and performance it stays grounded in the body, in humor and in collaboration throughout Playing Dead & Doing Time's various iterations. 

February 2021 - Residency & Performance February 2021 - at l'Estruch in Sabadell Spain - Two weeks to develop Playing Dead & Doing Time from a video performance into a live piece integrating video elements. Stay tuned for photo and video.

The Second Phase, Performance Projekt: "Elastic Endings", was a wonderful success after 7 weeks of choreographic research and development with 8 movers and dancers resulted in a Community Showing. Despite the necessary pandemic-related restrictions we were able to create an authentic, moving piece. 

Video can be seen here.
Thanks to  Tanzfabrik Berlin  for making the performance project possible.

​In Elastic Endings the finish becomes the starting point. Death, the ultimate end, gives the possibility of perceiving time. We measure it, see it pass in plants or our bodies. More relevant than ever, this project invites us to consider questions of endings, expectations and decay. Do we move through time or does it move around us? Time is linear and cyclical, measured and flowing. Through nature and cosmology, we will explore embodied perceptions of time and death. Using improvisation, group work and choreographic material, we will weave a performative frame for the public showing. 

First Phase - Research Residency & Performance - March 29-April 26, 2020 - ada Studio, Berlin 
Online Performance April 25-26 at 20.30 - Watch video here

We measure time with watches and in our bodies. We see it passing in plants. Decay becomes an indicator of time, the movement towards an end. In “Playing Dead & Doing Time”, death is the starting point. Inside the frame of endings, this movement-based performance experience is fascinated by the interconnectedness of death and time. “Playing Dead & Doing Time” explores the curiosity and tension between ‘dead’ and temporal progress by embodying postures of decay, circadian rhythms, ways of ending and Camilla, the nyctinastic plant.

2017-2019 - Signs.Sigils - Berlin 
​
Weaving movement and body language with humor and pathos, physical symbols become the guide through this dance between understanding and misunderstanding. "Signs.Sigils.ii" is a physical expression of the human desire for connection and the languages we use, we make, or that we break, in order to express ourselves. It began as a solo in 2017, was developed into a duet in 2018 and in Summer 2019 we will go into the studio again to crystalize the duet and develop a small group version.
