National premiere
Ausencia provokes a reflection of the absence of the body and the lack of physical contact. The dancer interprets a choreography that was originally conceived for two performers, but intended to be performed by one body, nfluenced and guided by the memory of the other’s presence. Between desire and frustration, the performer is drive by a presence that is unseen to the audience. This results in gestures that emerge from within, making it difficult to attribute the source of the action. The absence of the second dancer creates a negative space and a tension that contribute to the overall choreographic composition.
Bio
May Zarhy is an independent choreographer whose work explores the concept of liminality. She focuses on movement in relation to space, which she sees as a landscape inhabited by tensions. In her choreography, the act of listening becomes a central practice used to explore and negotiate each other’s presence. Zarhy graduated from Codarts in the Netherlands and the choreographic program at ex.er.ce in France. She is one of the founding members of the Mamaza collective, along with Joannis Mandafounis and Fabrice Mazliah in Germany. Since 2014, she has been creating pieces that blend choreography, performance, and soun art.
