This resting, patience by Ewa Dziarnowska

Tilgjengelighet More information forthcoming

Part ghostly repository of unconsumed sensuality, an installative kinetic fadeout, part somatic (strip)tease, This resting, patience  addresses attraction, voluntary objectification, proximity and the aesthetics of bareness. Employing an experimental format, it upsets the passivity of installation and the time-delineation and dramaturgical resolution of performance. It steps away from the tradition of viewing dance as an alienated spectacle to instead emphasise its immanent sociability.  

In its devotion to the body, This resting, patience proposes  sensuality and dancing as timeless and democratically available technologies, technologies for undoing the world and projecting the continuous present into a future that lasts, quintessentially tender, infatuated, attentive.

Bio

Ewa Dziarnowska (Poland) is a dancer and choreographer based in Berlin and working internationally. She is interested in a poetic dimension of dance, its inherent sensuality as well as the pleasure and pain it brings along. Feral, rough and raw, but not devoid of precision and expertise in relation to movement technique(s), her practice challenges ways in which dance circulates within bourgeois theatrical conventions and product-oriented entertainment industry.
