Non grammatical dance

"Ich bin ein Staubsauger, und du?"

An audio-visual based research into dance and its effect on our mindset. The animations are based on videos the people I’ve interviewed dancing. I trace and create new shapes and movements overdrawn with their own spoken comments of what dance means to them.

It is meant to reach individuals that identity through movements as a coping and healing mechanism. My aim is to create a space in which you can release and communicate difficulties by embracing each step of the process while dancing.

During my research I’ve found that what makes dance, especially personal dance, are the moments were movement is not fluid. We notice interruptions.
