It's in the air
Mette ingvarsten & Jefta Van Dinther - Danemark, Holland
..

We are perpetually haunted by the question of re-inventing the body, of what it can do, or what it is capable of. In IT’S IN THE AIR, Ingvartsen and van Dinther ask the question: how can we perceive the body as a body; as expressive qualities generated through movement? IT’S IN THE AIR unravels the body in the nexus between the human-cultural and the natural-physical, between will, effort and desire and mechanical laws and conditions.

A female and male body grow organically into body-machines, natural, yet against nature as a habit. They jump, bounce, flip, flop, ripple, slide, levitate, reverberate, shiver, rub, tick, explode… Bodies that defy the laws of motion and rest, the joy of muscles being moved, the many nuances of rhythm, density, texture, the tactility of movement, in virtuosity that elicits pure joy.
