Performance Description

Co-created by Vanessa Goodman & Simona Deaconescu and performed by Simona Dabija & Maria-Luiza Dimulescu BLOT explores movement in relation to the bacteria in our body. The show presents the body as an interconnected system strong and fragile at the same time. Stripped of the social meanings determined by language in BLOT the body is redefined through a dialogue about our coexistence with microbiological beings. The two female performers work with seemingly invisible connections but without which the human organism could not function.

Salt is a restructuring cleaning and binding agent. The human body cannot survive without sodium. In BLOT our salts are a conductor of creativity electricity and infection. Salt is shared by all from ocean to soil and body and is an essential supporter of life on earth. A dune of salt creates a collective body on stage. Our perspiration system defines our biological identity through our unique body odor created by bacteria.

Designed as a choreographic show in continuous transformation and reactive towards transformations from the present BLOT talks about how language defines human existence through processes of dependence and control. BLOT uses ideas borrowed from anatomy transporting the body into states of repetition fluidity compassion and empathic reactions. In BLOT movement is a transitory presence and an intersubjective experience. Through this method the artists test different ways of living concerning nature affecting and being affected.

This presentation is produced by TANGAJ COLLECTIVE & ACTION AT A DISTANCE.
