Performance Teaser

Description

A video image is projected on a table covered with sand. The projected image becomes a material image, thick and palpable. The image presents dancers lying on the wooden floor of the same place. The filmed dancers were there at a previous moment. During the performance, the live dancers manipulate their images and bodies. There is interaction between the filmed dancer and the live dancer. The filmed one reacts to the manipulations. The sand-covered table is made of transparent glass. When a live dancer takes the sand away, a part of the image disappears through the glass and seems to fall on the floor.
