What makes us intelligent beings? What was there in the beginning? How do the objects that we have created influence our humanity and where do they come from? Questions of meaning, origin and the bigger picture are an integral part of being human. In Acme of Emphasis, Fabrice Mazliah and dancer Adam Ster apply them to the condensed cosmos of artistic creation. The new piece is a playful journey into the heart of paradoxical thought; an attempt to create something that does not need us. Dancing with the thing that we have created; waiting for the moment when what we are looking at, gazes back at us.

Biography
Fabrice Mazliah
Fabrice Mazliah is a choreographer and performer based in Frankfurt / Main. Having collaborated and produced works with the Forsythe Company until its closure, Fabrice has initiated a long-term research into the embodied knowledge and heritage inscribed into practitioners in the field. He is interested in understanding and renegotiating the relationship between our environment, its objects, its atmospheres, and our bodies, ourselves and its potentialities. In his works, he regularly places the role of the receiver/perceiver in the centre of attention and celebrates the richness of possible perspectives that can be embodied on stage. His pieces provoke the collision of experiences and challenge binary views – allowing for a moment of suspension between the instants of perception and interpretation. He is interested in combining movement with language, in developing new forms of narrativity and poetry.
