…a contact zone…a call to slow down…a constant oscillation between the interior and the exterior…a raw exploration of what comes through…

 

STILLING is a practice-led performance about the intangible, but also a political questioning of what it means to produce. It investigates the potential of the still to transgress, to crossover. Standing, walking, crawling, sitting or lying down, the performer feels the stillness moving, the movement stilling. In this new solo, by means of building up energy and striping back excess, Tania seeks to get in touch with the more-than-one that is her body. Insistingly diving into what cannot be perceived by the external eye, the piece is an attempt to open up a moveable suspension encompassing the preceding, the actual, and the not-yet.
