Corridor

Autorenschaft
Beschreibung
Corridor looks at our ability to live together according to the accepted laws of humanity. It questions whether we can respond adequately to the increasing demands of our individual life-styles as well as to the greater problems which threaten our world. The relationship between movement and language is examined through the body as a transmitter and receiver of information. Individuals strive to respond to constant demands from the practical to the impossible, defining their place within the sphere of public interaction. The audience sits in a corridor formation of two long single rows facing each other, effectively becoming part of the set. The dancers receive instructions through a variety of media including iPods, telephones, spoken word and written text which provokes a struggle between the finality of words and the dissident communication of the human body. Each viewer has a unique perspective of the work, with the performers seen at very close range, or at a distance as they move up and down the corridor. Close proximity to the performers creates a disturbing tension revealing a more personal reality than the controlled presentation of a public performance.
