Entre Noeuds is a choreographic creation for three jugglers.
It’s the meeting point between three people, each with their own unique and personal artistic universe, where the body and the objects mutually influence each other, where juggling is an instigator for movement, and the body’s movement resonates through the objects. Slowly but surely they meet and grow closer, creating a dance where contact and interaction are perpetual and cooperation is essential. Each artist’s personality, juggling, and movement is amplified and enhanced by the group. What is impossible alone becomes possible by sharing, supporting and helping each other. It’s a first piece choreographed by Asaf Mor, created around his desire to explore collective juggling, inspired by contact improvisation and other forms of partnering. With this piece, and his future pieces, he aims to develop a choreographic language for group juggling, research how an object can impact and influence the body, adapt each artist’s personal research to group work, where the group amplifies each artist’s uniqueness as much as it is enriched by it. and using elements of contact dance, counter balance, and negative space, create choreographies inspired by the movements, patterns and rythms of juggling. |
Dance, which is fundamental in the piece, is more than an ally; it is an intrinsic part of the proposal. It appears fused in those three bodies, complicit in an energetic dance, with some influence from hip hop, which we never know if it is at the service of juggling acrobatics or if it is rather circus feats that are trying to camouflage themselves as dance. In that ambiguity lies the discovery that, on the other hand, forces them to make unconventional use of balls and clubs.
