O predstavi
Plesna predstava Human kolektiva Kjara's Dance Project se dogaja na letališkem terminalu. Letališče predstavlja globalni oder, prizorišče maksimalne tenzije med umetnim in naravnim, tehnološkim in organskim. Koreografija skeniranja, varnostnih pregledov in čakalnih vrst predstavlja rituale nadzora, ki nas postavljajo v nov odnos do sebe, do svojega potenciala biti drugačen in nov ali biti drug.
V čakanju na let se vzpostavi naključni kolektiv potnikov, ki nihajo med virtualno in resnično prisotnostjo. Dramatični in humorni trenutki napetosti so postavljeni na hiper postmoderno prizorišče, ki vdira v nas in izpostavlja naša najbolj krhka in intimna človeška stanja.
Ustvarjalci predstave Human raziskujejo vpliv mobilnosti na identiteto posameznika. S fragmentacijo družbe virtualna skupnost nadomešča pripadnost svojemu plemenu. Je migracija nujna za preživetje vrste? Nas izkoreninjenost približa avtentičnemu sebi ali povzroči, da izgubimo stik s sabo in s svojim človeškim tropom? Je sodobna skupnost dovolj, da zadovolji našo potrebo po sočloveku?
About the performance
Dance performance Human by Kjara's Dance Project collective takes place at an airport terminal. Airport represents a global stage, a place of maximum tension between the man made and the natural, the technological and the organic. The choreography of scanning, security checks and waiting lines represents the rituals of control that put us in a new relationship with ourselves, with our potential of being different, new, or being other.
While waiting for the flight, a coincidental collective of passengers emerges, oscillating between the virtual and the real presence. Dramatic and humorous moments of tension are set on a hyper postmodern scene that invades us and brings out our most fragile and intimate human states.
The creators of Human explore the effect of mobility on our identity. With the fragmentation of society, the virtual community is replacing tribal affiliation. Is migration necessary for the survival of the species? Does our uprooted existence bring us closer to the authentic self, or does it cause us to lose touch with ourselves and our human pack? Is contemporary society enough to satisfy our need for a fellow human being?
