Horizontal Fall
a generous abandoning gesture towards space
Oh, slave of gravity. You can not fly.
But by understanding our limits we will find freedom. To use the weight in a movement instead of fighting will give a sensation of weightlessness. The “Horizontal Fall” is a controlled fall that, in difference to the vertical fall, never reaches the ground. Instead of falling to the floor we fall along the floor.
The horizontal fall focuses more on the movement in space than the movement in the body and aims to produce knowledge of the difference between doing movement and making movement happen or appear.
It will involve spatial projection and releasing without relaxing. Bring your motivation.
