Representations of corporeality vary in different social groups.
Indeed, the body is always socially invested in specific ways. The body that we see is far from being a definitive reality.
Walking action, natural movement, spontaneous to automatic.
Abstract willingness affected by the light, the movement of the sound, the geometry from one point to all directions, the lines and curves. From abstract to narrative affected by your rhythm, my rhythm out of rhythm, how you look, where you look and why you look. Leading to a change or transformation of me, you and us. Expected or not, but it’s an information translated to a code in movement. Movement to decipher codes.
P.A.R.T.S.
This year’s program by the P.A.R.T.S. graduates demonstrates that Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker’s school produces promising choreographers. The first evening examines the social codification of bodies and movement’s potential for meaning. The second program focuses on the relationship between language or text and movement.
