NOISES
Sampling frequencies. Postures of self-contrast. Moving between stillness and self-shuttering. NOISES serves as a choreographic tribute to the artist Meir Eshel Absalon's final video work before his death from AIDS in 1993.
NOISES is a reaction, a response to the unknown, to chaos, to societal and inner fears and to a belief that the body is able to express unease and move into poetic homage, holding and repeatedly transforming layers of emotional history.
