Alicia Soto – Horjarasca from Spain and POST THEATER joined forces for this interdisciplinary dance performance. They collaborated on this explorations of gravity. What can this physical force mean beyond physics? Gravity provides us with orientation, but also limits us by pulling us down to the ground. When we are in zero-gravity, the idea of top and bottom vanishes. Freedom, anxiety and disconnection to reality meet when we leave the world that we take for granted. In “Super Gravity Zero Gravity” both performers and the audience lose their orientation and their sense of reality: live performers interact with projected performers and live movement meets video art in the “Gravity Box”. This installation combines live video art and pre-produced video images by arranging performance spaces and video screens in unusual relationship to each other. This allows the dancers to perform in zero gravity and new dimensions for the choreography.
