Overview
It could be said that space is never just the absence of matter, but is somehow a step ahead of it. As such, it is the initial principle of what is emerging. The dancers and their movement are embedded in multiple layers of materiality such as texture, skin, air, floor, movement, sound in this poetic short dance film. Just as a membrane envelopes and defines the most basic structure of a cell, it also teaches us about the multi-directionality of our attention. The intelligence of boundaries/“membranes” as spaces of response, bring us a sense of containment, limits and at the same time, provide a doorway through which we turn towards the other.
