Move Like You Have a Purpose

About the performance

This solo is a choreography where all movements follow a repetitive pattern. A movement pattern that transforms into another when it has reached its climax. The body twists into unsightly positions that affect breathing. The breathing becomes a movement of its own and enhances the physical expression throughout the solo. Finally, the dancer slowly crawls backwards and disappears from the stage.
