(2009)
- a multi-media performance in different dimensions
Alicia Soto − Horjarasca from Spain and post theater [new york / berlin / tokyo] joined forces for this interdisciplinary dance performance. Choreographer Alicia Soto, media-artists Hiroko Tanahashi and Max Schumacher collaborated on this explorations of gravity.
In Super Gravity Zero Gravity both performers and the audience lose their orientation and their sense of reality: live performers interact with projected performers and live movement meets video art in the “Gravity Box”. This installation combines live video art and pre-produced video images by arranging performance spaces and video screens in unusual relationship to each other. This allows the dancers to perform in zero gravity and new dimensions for the choreography.
Premiered on May 13th, 2009 at the 5th Int. Festival des Artes Castilia y Leon, Salamanca, Spain
