Solar
The mixed functionality theater group En Dynamei Ensemble, together with the dancer and choreographer Vitoria Kotsalou, proceed with the creation of a dance project involving six artists with and without disabilities.
A meditation on the things that keep us on our feet, addressing the sublime feeling that the “real” movement of different bodies can convey in a state of transcendence.
“Solar” is air, it’s the here-and-now (in other words, the future), it’s a feast, the earthly touches that are nothing but accidental. “Solar" is joyful; a sun that can light up everything; something you’re doing for the first time.
“Solar” opens up a space for the collective and individual quest for common ground, fostering coexistence and the acceptance of the other, the different, the uncanny, and the incomprehensible. It is a collaborative, hands-on “study” of how acceptance affects our lives, relationships, and happiness – and vice versa.
Drawing material from the thirty members of the En Dynamei Ensemble, we create a score of movement and speech. Building on the specificity of each participant and their diverse perceptions, we create a performance dedicated to existence, an awakening of the deepest life drive.
What is it that allows us to seek, claim, or offer in life?
Each existence has the need to interact, create relationships, move, or connect through a continuous rhythmic process. The world is organized as a complex nervous system with undivided qualities and textures. Every part of this nervous system stretches out toward more life. The world is in constant flux. The world is being created as we speak.
Do you need to live in a perfect world to celebrate it? How do you celebrate a world that is falling apart, fading away, sinking?
