PROGRAMME
Before the modern period, before the unstoppable linearity of enlightenment, industrialisation and the technological somersaults that continue into the present, there were the Middle Ages. The dark era of feudalism and rigid hierarchies, for one. But, on the other hand, an “in-between time” which – from today’s globalised perspective – seems “static and suspended”, making it a space-of-time of longing for choreographer and performer Martina De Dominicis. In her piece Latente, De Dominicis and co-performers Magdalena Forster and Manuel Riegler (the latter also being responsible for the marvellous sound design) let “time move in multiple directions”, giving themselves over to the half-light and centering ritualistic dedication and “tactile knowledge” in their explorations.
