Everyone is briefly suspended from the floor, simultaneously going up and coming down. A disappearance of the self occurs whilst suspended and our hope not to return to the ground appears<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

‘POOF’ hypnotises itself through continually shifting its ground. Shapeshifting between fictioning, labouring and dancing, the work invokes a slippery place of (non) arrival in the body as a tool to disappear.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Through a practice of minding and mining our presence, we attend to the periphery by putting our attention into drag. ‘POOF’ behaves as a mirage dancing from gesture to jump and dwells on the ephemerality of the dance whilst rhythmically reminding us of our tethers to memories and histories that we feel but don’t know<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

It is a work built and fuelled on notions of not naming in order to see.\u00a0\u2018POOF\u2019 is a word used to describe a sudden disappearance or in British slang, it is a term to describe an effeminate homosexual<\/p>\n

They\u2019re background in movement stems from their studies in martial arts, breakdance and most prominently Latin and ballroom dances. Their practice is shaped through various intersections of performance from choreographic and movement research to texts, interviews, and archives. In their own dances they often work with the notion of people as an already existing choreography, looking at how to generate a collective energetic event departing from the hope in which dance instils within them. They are currently investigating how to disappear and reappear in the act of dancing\u2026[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator type=”full_width” border_style=”” up=”40″ down=”40″ color=”#000000″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
