Zagreb Dance Company/ ZKM & Laura Arís Álvarez

I'm in the postpartum mood...still echoing the intensity of the last few weeks, grateful for the human and artistic encounters and blissful to have opportunities to create my own stage work.
Long live to Geometry of Breath!

"The final piece that they showed to the Zagreb audience can be "read" on countless different levels, from the fact that geometry is literally present in everything, which is a clear reminded of the light created by Saša Fistrić all the way to which human emotions intertwine and melt, which is excellently shown by the stage use of costumes of the dancers, the costume designer Ana Fucijaš created hoodies in which two moving bodies fit at the same time. And just like in dramatic performances, for which the old Chekhov rule applies, "the gun that hangs on the wall in the first act must fire in the last”, here too, the stones that the dancer throws on the stage in the first scene of the work at its end offers interesting scenes in which the arrangement of the stones that the dancers place around the stage recalls rows of soldiers, but also children in a joyful procession of flowers, showing that everything in life is limited by the way we humans use it, just as the associations to what we see are conditioned by our experiences, but also by the moment in which we live."
