Busy Rocks / Dominos & Butterflies
Düsseldorf, Germany
30 Jan '10
As soon as the given constellation of bodies on stage gets off-balance, this very opening motion continues passing on throughout the entire length of the performance. One body propels the next, impulse after impulse, accident after accident. Dominos and Butterflies pictures both a relentless catastrophe and a complexly designed machinery in which the forces of nature are compelled to do the work.
The piece exploits the productivity of self-imposed constraints, triggering the fabrication of surprising connections and new combinations. Choreography turns into step-by-step problem solving, when each constellation of bodies conditions the possibilities for the next movement.
Background Information
Busy Rocks is a collective that works in the field of contemporary dance. It consists of five members (Franziska Aigner, Fabian Barba, Marisa Cabal, Tuur Marinus and Gabriel Schenker), and was formed in June 2008, when all five members graduated from P.A.R.T.S., school for contemporary dance in Brussels.
Busy Rocks was founded on artistic affinities and a desire to keep up and deepen the productive interactions, that were built up throughout the four years spent together at P.A.R.T.S. The collective functions as an inspirational environment and a platform for a constant and durational work sharing.
Busy Rocks would like to facilitate public, programmers and theatres to follow a narrative of development inside an otherwise over fragmented market system.
