About the performance
Solo 2016 is a personal and at the same time a universal account of a dancer who, through a series of various emotional states, speaks about a world beyond the black box; about intimacy, sadness, trust and hope, beauty and terror. The dancer’s movement is the thread joining and connecting the past and the future with the present moment, in which everything changes while the body constantly traverses the space and time within and without the line of forces that violently intrude in our intimate space. The intertwinement (of styles and periods) in music functions as the body’s extension into space and dictates the change in muscle tensions that produce rhythm – as traces of movement in time. The border between the illuminating and the absorbing light is situated on the thin line between presence and fading, between the disappearing and the flowing [of life] outside and inside a closed space of [creation]. Solo 2016 is a reflection of a moment, uncatchable and at the same time timeless, which comes and is already gone; one has no strength to grab it. After the solo performances Within (2006) and Off-Beat (2011), Solo 2016 by the Slovakian dancer, choreographer and dance pedagogue Milan Tomášik rounds off his trilogy of solo performances created in the last decade.
“When the artist’s intimacy exfoliates and shows itself, this is a personified ritual, in which the state of every person present begins to vibrate since what vibrates is the bodily substances of refined senses and perceptions of movement. That night, ours were inspired by the genuineness and nobility of the artist’s and dancer’s creation. We were grateful to him for his refined and expressively artistic note, his stage illusion, which, at least for a short while, took us away from the outside world of reality.” Daliborka Podboj, Dance Parade
Where the Things Hide
Hidden among daily things arise new worlds, new dimensions led by metaphors which alter the perception of an immediate reality. The absurd, the paradox, the humor are to be found in our body.
A “daily body” articulated behind its normal appearance, recognizable and familiar to us all, hides weirdness and grace which yields to new sensations and different perceptions.
“Innovation, creativity and beauty of simplicity are the identity signals of the First Prize Winner on the Solo Contest.” 15Masdanza 2010
