RUSH
How do you retrace a choreographic work without robbing it of its vitality, or exhibit it without turning it into a museum piece? Every journey requires a guide. Choreographer Mette Ingvarsten invited one of her long-time dancers, Manon Santkin, to join her in articulating the story of what “makes a dance piece”. Drawing on ten pieces on which they have collaborated, they have transformed a set of extracts into “acts of imagination”, giving substance to questions; for twenty years, Mette Ingvarsten’s work has explored the troubled zones of nudity, sexuality and pleasure, shaping shifting landscapes, dancing the vagaries of matter. RUSH infuses these contradictory states like a concentrate of movements and words, underscoring the importance of the performer in the choreographic process: the performer’s body as a world, capable of summoning the past of gestures to actualize them in the present.
