San (Beyond)/Stance II - T01757676681San (beyond), a homage to Bauhaus master Oskar Schlemmer, is a game with light and geometric figures. Three men in silhouette are joined by two female visions, one a man in drag evoking the Weimar Republic cabaret of the 1930s, the other in a long tight-fitting red dress, reclining on a stairway. San (beyond) is a moody, visually arresting piece which perfectly captures Schlemmer's philosophy on design and motion. In Stance II, an uncluttered stage is occupied by a lone figure in a long dress, bathed in a background of golden light. The piece was influenced by Diverres' time spent with Kazuo Ohno, a seminal practitioner of the post-war Japanese dance form, Butoh, and echoes the beauty and grace of classical Chinese and Japanese paintings. | |
