CASCADE

Mousonturm Studio 1

CASCADE is a hideout place on stage – a greenhouse for a dance that’s moving around ever so slowly without going anywhere in particular. It’s like a plant that’s using our perception for photosynthesis. The images are constantly growing and decaying in front of us but nothing ever really changes in this choreographic arboretum unless we want it to. If we look long enough things will get blurry or maybe the light is just fading out (again). This choreography is turning into a camouflage, exploiting the vulnerability of our visual perception and at the same time uncovering something else that we didn’t see before.
