Avant-guarde choreography. UK Premiere. Making her first appearance in the UK, Cristina Caprioli has developed cut-outs & trees as a promenade performance, in collaboration with architect and digital artist Panagiotis Michalatos. The six technically brilliant dancers deliver an explosive outburst of speed and complexity, urge and resistance, but also graceful simplicity and clarity. Caprioli references 1960s and 70s minimalism including Trisha Brown’s drawings, reconsidering and redesigning these ideas using today’s dance and digital technology. The projections cast an imaginary forest of trees and shadows, while further texturing is added with a sound score by Carsten Nicolai a.k.a. alva noto.
