All That Dissolves Must Ascend

FILE Sao Paulo 2022 | Videoart
Electronic Language International Festival

A group of performers recreates the mood in a techno club through improvisation and dance – a place that could perhaps be a space of total inclusion, because here the boundaries of individuality dissolve and everything loses itself in it. In the illusionary and liminal space of the theater and through the presentation of non-generic bodies, the limits of the representability of ecstasy and transcendentality are being investigated.
