Infinite Patterns

Sonia Rodríguez & Enrico Paglialunga


Based on the last duet production ‘Lighthouse’ created from the collaboration between Sonia Rodriguez and Enrico Paglialunga, this performance project arises with the idea to research the combination of both choreographic languages in a new version for a group.
We investigate the theme of ‘travel’ as a transitory moment in our life. We want to give our contribution towards a more empathic way of perceiving not only the process of migration, but what happened in a human scale to the persons that leave everything to move to a land where they expect to find a better living.
What happens when you leave your homeland, your mother language and common sense, and you enter into this uncertain space where there are no longer references? What we leave behind keeps evolving, developing a life while we are not there. You are still there but as an absent presence (for your family, your loved ones). How do we deal with this double status?. We are moving in a new world, without known references as basic as language (in its broad sense) and we carry our own known world as an invisible shadow.

The Performance project is an opportunity to dive into a 4 days creation process with final presentation on 30.11 at Uferstudios Studio 1.
This format is an experimental way to gather together various backgrounds towards the realization of a short creation inspired by the characteristic of each participant.

When:
From 27.11 to 30.11
27-28-29 10:00-16:00 Uferstudios Berlin, Studio1

Dance Technique


“NOTHING TO FEAR AND NOTHING TO DOUBT”

Base in Release Contemporary Dance Technique.

Beginning with focusing work, Sonia will introduce specific exercises designed to engage the muscles and release excess tension through use of the breath.

Refined articulations will be explored in the centre, followed by extended combinations to emphasise the development of kinetic awareness and the use of muscular opposition to facilitate flexibility into, out of and off the floor.

The class will finish with more complex phrases combining different energetic qualities, different levels, working our presence and material from Sonia’s company repertoire.

Master Class


“TO CROSS THE BORDER OF OUR BORDERS”

Every day we try to enjoy the moment, learning and following our way, gathering our own experiences. The motor of dancers and movers is our body, it’s the tool by which we explore the movements to communicate and canalize our emotions. All external impulses influence our dance and they manifest differently depending on our personality. This is the knowledge that we want to expand and share with others. In this master class I would like to share my choreographic point of view, and contribute ideas to reflect on our capabilities and limitations as a performer. I invite dancers and movers who want to experiment and transform our old patterns. It will be an evolving process: we will start with a technical class to work the perception of the body as layers, with different sensation and emotional states, emphasizes the body ́s natural alignments and movements, between doing and observing the flow of impulses .In the second part we will put our attention on more complex phrases, combining different energetic qualities and different levels. All this under the inspiring idea “ To cross the border of our borders”. The first objective is working our presence without fear, this will allow us to be honest with our feelings and inspiration, and being able to share it with the group. We will go through our intense physical work to explore bodily experiences and images finding our own strategies to perform.
