6.58 : Manifesto

“6.58” presents a choreographic triptych which critically explores the concept of artifice and artificiality, as constructs that are silently filtering and sedimenting into our minds and bodies. Artificiality as the contemporary individual identity framed within a post-industrial society, intertwined amongst technology and machines. Where artifice is observed as artificiality’s seduction that wraps our experiences, interactions and notion of the future human. 5 dancers, in conversation with the hegemony of a machine, opera singer, and DJ; transverse 3 disarticulated tableaux while experimenting on the notion of flesh and mind, as mediated by external forces.
