SLICE
– a visceral dissection
This stark, uncompromising dance work incorporates beauty, brutality and absurdity through a joyride inside the body’s organs. It is an irritation on the skin, the outline of the body, dissecting the body through dance, video and sound.
Concept of SLICE
die whilst alive, dissection of the flesh
visceral desire commands and
imprisons
an incision, one more
the shape dissolves
hanging
breathing from the shoulder
and downwards
the dance of the ribs
the true face
devoured to the bone
a naked soldier, a slave of dissolving
unity and separation
disincarnation and secret fantasies
flying
the insect is crushed by the light
an incision, one more
a visceral walk
