Overview
Constructions of Thin Air by Maresa von Stockert asks questions and provokes thoughts on the changing nature of home, identity and the systems we are embedded in.
Created with an international cast of nine dancers, ranging in age from early 20s to 60s, the stage piece unfolds in two acts:
Act 1 zooms in on an absurd system. It is a metaphor for any system – whether political, social, economical – that we belong to, depend on, struggle with or reject. The individual is reduced to a cog in a complex machinery that breaks down, leaving us in an ambiguous landscape between old and new, remnants and re-inventions, departures and arrivals.
In contrast, Act 2 is intimate and fragile – a reflection on the permanent de- and reconstruction of human relationships and existences. It lays bare the power of memories and their loss, as well as the inevitability of change.
Running time: 80 minutes including an interval.
