Impact

A new piece of high-impact choreography in the former metal works @AE Harris, devised with local participants. ‘The subjects of each dance are the movements themselves. Dance is to be performed and perceived primarily on a physical level. Accordingly, risk taking is an essential factor when performing a task in order to defy the audience’s analyzing process. . . Physics is used to create locomotion through invisible forces such as impact, rebound, inertia, velocity and ricochet. Correspondingly, movement systems are developed without the use of the bottom of the feet, i.e. popping, splatting, thumping.’ These words from Mehmet Sander’s manifesto written over 20 years ago and rigorously adhered to today give a taster of what to expect.
