Still life
Still Life is a production focused on our relationship with everyday objects and nature. In an hour-long performance/interview, Agata Maszkiewicz and Vincente Tirmarche recall comments by Alex, Jenny, Marco and Emma on their surroundings, the nature of things and death. On the stage, the dancer – endeavouring to avoid the physical presence of objects – tries to address the questions through movement posed to her interlocutors. Engaging her entire body, she explores the boundary between enduring and passing away, immobility and dying out, becoming and pupation – whilst simultaneously deceiving the viewers’ sense of time and space. In effect, the collage composition of dance, light, costumes and video projection has become a still life per se.
