Moving2Silence

What ist space? What is time? What is the relationship between our body and the universe that surrounds us?   Moving2Silence is an audio-video-object of the encounter of two artists as a confluence of their intentions - in relation to body and movement on the one hand and the creation of meanings through audio and video on the other.   In collaboration with audio and video artist Lorenzo Francesconi, a cinematic journey through contrasts and interactions is created.   Production IceDanceTheater-Fusion...

Does movement performed on ice automatically change dance movement into something that glides? How does the audience’s optical perception of dance change in the vastness of the new space provided by...

Curiosity, play instinct and projection of desire develop a momentum of fluid static gliding and steady acceleration.   Blind Date premiered at the international festival for...
