The search for space…
The apparent stillness… and every moment captured, is now able to show a fragment of this complex journey.

The choreography is inspired by Doris Humphrey’s solo “Two ecstatic Themes” (1931). A temporal manipulation of the original created a new movement score for a lyrical and evocative poem. A woman’s fate depends on her action and being as an artist.
