Performance showing on April 26, 2019
Invited to perform at Festival DDD (Dias da Dança), dance festival in Portugal on April 26 2019, thanks to the invitation of Flávio Rodrigues (artist and curator of DDD OUT*), LAND PROJECT continued to be developed, between February and April in different encounters exploring the concept and notion of “mediated motion” as a form to investigate possibilities of common action at a distance. The encounter aimed, through its development, at exploring possibilities of uniting the remote spaces/locations – Casa da Arquitectura (Matosinhos, Portugal) and LaMaMa Rehearsal Studios (New York, US) – and connecting the outdoors/public space ( @daniel-pinheiro) with the indoors/intimate space ( @lisaparra ) {an idea to be developed further into the future}.
While exploring the concept of (re)-mediation, the setup where the performance took place in Portugal and where audience was expected to be present was structured so that the spectator could choose from which perspective to watch the live interaction and some artifacts, such as materials tested for video projection purposes and a playlist of the previous encounters/rehearsals leading to this presentation.
*DDD OUT is a section of the festival, coordinated by Balleteatro which curates dance works to be performed in the public space.
