Resolution 26: Room Dance Company, Kirstin Halliday, Lilah Bobak
An evening that reflected how contemporary choreography increasingly extends beyond movement into installation, ecology, costume and multimedia
An evening that reflected how contemporary choreography increasingly extends beyond movement into installation, ecology, costume and multimedia
A varied selection of choreographic voices… Every work showed a different sense of direction, whether through ideas, energy or physical presence
Three works that approach dance from very different directions. Movement functioned as performance, but also a way of listening, gathering and questioning
From theatrical storytelling, to an intimate duet built around physical touch, to an abstract collaboration between movement and installation
Some works appear fully formed, while others feel provisional, still in dialogue with larger ideas yet to come… energy emerges as a shared currency
Across the evening, each work investigates the combination of different art forms as a means of shaping a personal artistic language.
Sound repeatedly insists on being more than accompaniment. It presses into the choreography, shaping timing, attention and pressure on the body
