The rest is silence

dance performance, 2020, 60'

Forming a community of imagined folklore as a choir, 7 dancers explore the limits of being together. How does a group moving in unison reach the point of separation; what is the place of individuality in a society? How does a song move from communion to exclusion? Where is the line between a joyful explosion and a war detonation? Nicole Seiler experiments with the physicality of sound: what the body – and only the body – can produce, in its interiority and exteriority.
