Where does your body begin? Where does mine end? In this intimate and playful duet Renae Shadler and Roland Walter explore our physical surface, the skin, as a porous barrier between interior and exterior – both boundary and point of contact.
In SKIN, the two performers find common movement languages that question the usual ideas of a “mixed-abled” choreography. They use their bodies and the various objects in the room to play and create unusual sculptures that offer the spectator a new perspective. Inspired by the qualities of sea anemones, liquids, and the surfaces of the earth, SKIN imagines a world in which there is no more or less “able” body.
Recommended from the age of 10.
SKIN was selected by Tanzplattform Deutschland 2022 and Aerowaves 2021.
