These_Connected_ Bodies

Artist in residence: Mirko Guido

An investigation into interrelatedness, multidirectionality and emergent processes through choreographic practices

In continuity with Mirko Guido’s choreographic research, the ambition is to interweave the investigation of the body/self as a layered and multidimensional subject with that of the choreographic space as a relational and emergent process. Guided by systems thinking, and through dance and storytelling practices based on interrelatedness and intersubjectivity concepts, we ask how performance can act as a complex adaptive system.

The process is a navigation through a sci-fi framework that employs dance, spoken word, sound and light to work towards a performance environment imagined as a futuristic digital forest. A densely entangled space from which situations, encounters, stories, and fleeting visions emerge.
