Liliths Appetite: Quiet Consolidation

En installasjon med dans og video. Forestillinger:
torsdag 25. januar, fredag 26. januar, lørdag 27. Januar, kl 19.30 alle dager. I Atelier Nords prosjektrom i Lakkagata 55 D.

Con:sol:i:date: 1 [trans] make (something) physically stronger or more solid. (combine a number of things) into a single more effective or coherent whole.

Quiet consolidation er en installasjon i tre deler. Tanken er å skape en nærmere relasjon mellom danser og publikum ved at de beveger seg i det samme, inkluderende rommet.

Tittelen referer til et forsøk på å oppnå harmoni mellom to forskjellige materialiteter, her kropp og video. Er det mulig å danse duett med sin egen avbildning og kan levende bilder forsterke en følelse av korporealitet når de integreres med en kropp i bevegelse?

Koreografien, eller bevegelsesmaterialet, består av både den bevegelige kroppen og de skiftende lys- og bildeprojeksjonene. De virtuelle rommene som konstrueres gjennom lys og videoprojeksjoner påvirker sammen med danser, Silje Nordheim, det virkelige rommet. Nye stemninger oppstår i et stadig skiftende miljø.

Konsept og koreografi: Larissa Tiusainen
Dans: Silje Nordheim
Dramaturgi: Ine T. Berg
Lyd: Kelly Davis
Produksjonsassistent: Sylwia Bogdanowicz

Forestillingen er støttet av Norsk Kulturråd, Fond for Utøvende Kunstnere og Atelier Nord.
