About the performance
Identity is the main driving force of change.
Usurpation of the established structure and context, appropriated and remodeled into the main driver of change. Mechanism and automatism of the everyday as the causes of alienation are converting individual into an object with no flash and no meaning, caught in the spirals and interspaces. In the constant fight against such attitude, we seek to revive our subject, and are thus constantly struggling with the fact that we are nothing more than an object to the other, deprived of our true meaning. Looking for an opportunity to tear ourselves out of this, we are creating our own waving, we are bending space and time according to our liking. We are looking for an opportunity to increase our energy, to become more massive, more prominent, more attractive, hated, rejected, conformists or dissidents. Flamenco is a medium that enables us to achieve this, that intensifies and highlights the motion, adding weight, flesh and meaning to it.
„I am a red rocket, igniting, burning, dying. // Everywhere is silence: in the fields, in the sky, in the clouds, I’m the only one escaping, burning with my scalding fire and I can’t reach the silence.” (S. Kosovel, Red Rocket).
About the authors
ŠvarcTanc is a young creative team of six dancers, presenting their dance debut within PKD Flamenko, where they have been dancing under the direction of Ana Pandur for many years. In their project, whose name duplicates the name of the group, they are dealing with communication, interpersonal relationships, and the baseline platform that unites the otherwise heterogeneous group of individuals. They use momentum and rhythmic code of flamenco, as well as the frame, structure and rhythmical commandments, acting as the basis, the constant and the call for change and research.
Excerpt from Press Review / Critic
“Their bold, yet sophisticated work of art is not only this, but much more, it is a synonym for art. They as dancing core with snaps, claps, stomps created increasing tension, which is a loud ringing call for changes and awakening.” Nina Žnidarič, Dance Parade
