Composites

Composites is a multidisciplinary dance performance, choreographed and performed by Ramona Sekulovic, investigating what it means to be present. What constitutes presence in both a performer and the audience? How is a performer's presence intimately related to technique? And how can audience and performer have a successful experience and communicate with each other via an artistic presentation? Composites is the outcome of a research process that is heavily influenced by the Feldenkrais Method, a source of Sekulovic’s artistic practice. But Composites is also the product of a dance practice that is intertwined with the experience of dancing while aging. Composites was created in close connection to Philip Glass’ Piano Etudes, which he initially wrote as a means to improve his personal piano play. The compositions caught the interest of Sekulovic who decided to investigate her own body in a similar fashion, using the act of choreography to improve technique. In a time, when our physical self-image and relationship to ourselves is strongly influenced by media, Composites brings the attention back to the body. It further introduces the audience into the creative process of a dance work and let’s viewers experience movement first-hand through sensorial explorations.
