-O̶u̶t̶ O̶f̶ S̶p̶a̶c̶e̶,

A dance piece that explores the idea of a fictional story of the first generation of humans growing on planet Mars.  The only nature on the planet is artificial - an ecosystem that has been created by man that tries to recreate the similar conditions of planet earth.  People’s lives are rules-based and every hour of every day is structured around giving back to society.

The work will explore what it is like for these people - the curiosity to know and feel connected with a natural world which they have never experienced yet still feel very attached to it.  How will people react when their only purpose and mission is to contribute without any opportunity for individualism.  Will they still seek to rebel and break the rules, if the only life they know is one of acceptance and conformity?

 

This is a new version of my international repertoire work, Out Of Space, I first started to develop with students at the Dance Arts Faculty (DAF) during two weeks as a guest choreographer in Rome, Italy in June 2021. Following Guest artist for Attakkalari Centre of movement arts in Bangalore, India during November / December 2021 bringing now a totally renovate and version of my repertoire to NAFA.
