Deaconescu & V. Goodman: BLOT \u2013 Body Line of Thought
\n<\/b>Tangaj Collective & Action at a Distance
\n<\/b>13 May, Zagreb (HR)
\n<\/span>Duration: <\/b>45 minutes
\n<\/span>Contains:<\/b>\u00a0nudity<\/span><\/p>\n

BLOT \u2013 Body Line of Thought<\/i><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/i>explores movement in relation to the bacteria in our body. The work presents the body as an interconnected system, strong and fragile at the same time. Designed as a hybrid performance, a mix of conference and choreographic show, <\/span>BLOT<\/span><\/i>\u00a0talks about similarities between humans and other animals, such as perspiration, smell, reproduction, physical exercise, and immunity. From micro to macro, the performance addresses how bacteria influence these processes and connect us with the planet.<\/span><\/p>\n

Following the events that have defined the recent history of our interaction with the environment, it is necessary to look at the body as a system that cannot exist outside the multitudes it contains. Stripped of the social meanings determined by language, in <\/span>BLOT<\/span><\/i>\u00a0the body is redefined through a dialogue about our coexistence with microbiological beings. The two female performers work with seemingly invisible connections, but without which the human organism could not function.<\/span><\/p>\n
