Über die Veranstaltung
Freitag, 30. August 2024 - 19:30 Young Choreographers Night
Piece #1. Yeram Kang (KR/AT) 'For the day of SIXTH'
The only thing that makes us different from other living beings is our senses and memories. We – as a human being can explore different aspects of our bodies by focusing on memory and sensation. Imagine the moment when we were first born into the world in a state of ignorance. Is that innocence still there in me? What was your first action when you felt first sense?

Piece #2. Seo Jin Moon (KR/AT) 'Continue up'
The word ‘up’ in the title means both “to keep piling up” and “to get closer”. The idea starts with the question, “How can we put discarded man-made resources into a circular process?” Since man-made resources do not return to nature, they need to be continuously recycled. Process of ‘up’ and ‘recycling’, and express the will to circulate in the upcoming phenomena unconsciously. We can share the process of how the materials around us are circulated and returned to us, and thoughts on the phenomena that are approaching unconsciously. It also creates movements inspired by one of the street dance genres of “house” and combines them by substituting the verbs mentioned above.

Piece #3. Alberto Serrano (US/ES) 'BULLPUNCHER'
In the realm of the self, amidst a landslide,
You, without choice, confront the ego, a bull in disguise.
In this arena of cathartic combat,
Punches whisper release,
Echoes cascade through the heart,
Breaking, embracing, rebuilding.
Oh Bullpuncher,
A battle, a serenade waiting within...
Choreography, Dance : Alberto Serrano
Piece #4. Juliana Vargas Rodríguez (CO/AT) 'Distant Oder'
A dance piece about sculptures with one hand on the forehead and the other one on the chest. They sing songs of prisioners, mountain cats, golden teeth and horses. A dance piece about merciless wounds. A dance piece inspired by a newspaper from yesterday, with the headline “Pedro Navaja died”. A dance piece placed in a plastic city where it only rains and snows. A dancepiece were she never walks sideways, she dances with one mouse, with many thombs and a lot of flare. Shortly (and for those who didn’t guess it yet), a tribute to salsa music.
