“How to watch at a moving body” is the result of the co-authorship of three choreographers: Eva Klimáčková, Anka Sedlačková and Daniel Raček and is intended for public spaces, specifically gardens, parks or natural spaces, and is suitable for adults and children. The intention of this atypical performative project is to create a moment and an organic space of coexistence between the performer and the viewer, sharing the same ecosystem of trust, together reshaping the relationship and dynamics of a common space and a free view. The performance organically invites the viewer into the role of performer and, moreover, offers them to share the same point of view without hierarchy. Work with energy recycling, gestures, common words, as well as exploring the inner world and the surrounding space are part of the vocabulary and movement repertoire. Word and movement become guides to the landscape.

Recommendation for picnic participants: take a bread box, waterproof shoes, a raincoat (in case of bad weather), a mat, liquids, fruit, sandwich bread and a cookie.

O AUTOROCH

Neskorý zber / Compagnie E7KA

Authors: Anna Sedlačková, Eva Klimáčková and Daniel Raček are Slovak artists, performers, choreographers who have significantly influenced the Slovak dance field for more than 25 years. In the late nineties, Eva and Daniel studied at the University of Performing Arts in Bratislava, where Anna was a young teacher. In that period, they worked closely together in discovering new ways of performance and improvisation. Later, their artistic journeys developed individually in different parts of the world, but they remained personally connected. Four years ago, they began informally exploring ways of sharing through movement and talk. “We moved and talked about our lives, feelings, fascinations, and also about people and events that we met together or individually and that greatly influenced us”; as exemplified by Andrew Morrish, who developed a specific form of performance improvisation and practice: “The Performance Improviser is most interested in how some structure emerges during the performance, with the main dynamic coming from allowing the brain to follow its own path of meaning-making.” It is a spiral, a pattern-making mechanism that bridges the conscious and unconscious realms of feeling, perception, and imagination. There will be as many dead ends as highways in this process.”
