Remachine
Remachine explores the interplay between humans and an inescapable hyper-mechanised environment.
At the mercy of their own technology, five dancers navigate the unstable ground under their feet.
The performance unravels as a chain of cause and effect. In a cascade of physical, social and political influences, a dance between the organic and the inorganic, labour and ritual, liberty and constraint, emerges as a contradictory state of contemporaneity. Via a powerful orchestration of both vocal and physical material, and in a new collaboration with composer Anna von Hausswolff, Remachine draws its viewer into a meditation on discipline, relentlessness, insatiability, and the power of the mind over the body.
“In life, we often feel as if we are both autonomous beings making choices and cogs in a system, governed by greater worldly forces. Remachine stages this inner friction, a space of limbo.”
