Douglas

Douglas has its roots in the outdoors where the choreographer reflected on his everyday routine tasks and incidental events, often involving simple objects. A lone figure is framed with a number of simple objects. Through various interactions and constructed compositions with body and objects, the work pursues an idea of 'interconnectedness' where objects impart movement upon the body, and where body and object become interchangeable. Harvesting potential energy through balance, weight and gravity, kinetic energy is unleashed. A return of energy can more than match energy expended. Douglas is perhaps not so isolated.
