DUST

From a variety of physical languages of seduction, the choreography by Arco Renz and the original music by Marc Appart create a distinctive universe in an interactive scenography by visual artist Lawrence Malstaf.

DUST and wind are ancient symbols for transience and change. The performance is an on-going process of transformation, in which appearances change and movements, sounds, intentions, atmospheres vanish before we can hold on to them. A dance performance about the paradox of seduction – its power, its charm, its illusion, its violence, its mechanisms of control.

The performance explores the solitary coexistence of individuals in a world where economically motivated seduction is a prime tool of control and power. Five individuals are captured in an imposing, digitally-steered environment.

DUST is an intense interplay of dance, music, scenography and lighting design.
