Dead Heart
Solo Concept & choreography: Thalia Stone
Music: Jannis Carbotta
Supported by Dis-Tanz-Solo (DIS-TANZEN, NEUSTART KULTUR)
Dead Heart is a solo performance developed from Ecoclimax / Tipping Points, an investigation into the 'fragility and sensitivity of an environment' through reframing and re-perception. Through a series of (scientifically sound) experiments, including flowers in a vase, an ice block releasing silver balls, and beans swelling in a glass until a foam ball falls, Ecoclimax exposes the magic in reality, revealing nature's climaxes and its 'Tipping Points'. The experiments capture and unpack the moments when the 'spinning' of a natural reaction becomes too great for the present state, transforming the composition of the space and creating energetic space for a new process to begin. The choreography becomes a reframed version of the data, making it accessible for digestion in new ways, and carries accumulation, tipping and collapse onto the body. At tteerrriibbllee, the flower experiment was remade as an installation alongside the performance.
