“Landscapes
of Love“ is a series of insights, attempts to solve a puzzle,
to understand and to keep an over view. Pieces of life, love are supposed
to come together in a kind of work in progress. Life consists of sundry
encounters, different perceptions. It is precisely these points that
are being questioned to create a performance. “Landscapes of Love”
tries to tell the story in six parts.
Dance is kept in a reduced minimalist gesture style. The music is composed
by the Percussionist/ Guitarist and noise : breathing, words sounds
etc.
The film- images show a dance in the studio , in the same length of
time as the performance . The dancer encounters herself in a mirror
image of movement (in two projections). Thus the feeling is created
that these are three figures. These unite on stage and are yet separated
by the
coincidences of the changing projections (This happen out of purely
technical reasons which creates small time separations because of the
two projectors that cannot run identically)
1st. Act: Seeing – the search, die illusion of a first beginning,
the desire for a partner etc.
2nd. Act: The encounter – Possibilities get reduced
3rd. Act: The discovery - finding, the coincidence of an encounter
4th Act: Getting a costumed- the experience, the compromise, living
together.
5th Act: destruction - loss, separation begins
6th Act: Loss - end and a new beginning, repetition,
desire begins, experience and fear, again beyond, life in a spiraling
world of experience.
