NO COMFORT ZONE (teaser)

Year of production: 2016

Running time: 1:04

Teaser of performance

video teaser of "No Comfort Zone" (excerpt) by Fenia Kotsopoulou

"No Comfort Zone": esprime un’idea di creazione contemporanea come interazione tra differenti linguaggi e pratica di ricerca comprendendo un margine auspicabile di non conforto, o rischio, come parte fruttuosa del processo. Riconosciamo nel movimento del corpo e nel movimento del suono una stessa entità che sottoponiamo ad un pari trattamento decostruttivo/ricostruttivo.

Nel corpo sonoro cerchiamo una dimensione non organica, non fluida, non scorrevole: un segno capace di restituire la frammentarietà dei pensieri e l’opposta tensione, o forza del sentire, verso quell’esperienza di “continuum” costantemente sfuggente. Ascoltando Beethoven.

corpografie/choreography : Sara Marasso

"Fragments of Experience"

Video documentation about the choreographing process of "Ptosis" by Pavlos Kountouriotis, the second of his minimalistic and repetitive choreographies
(www.kountouriotis.org)

"Fragments of Experience" is actually a series of video documentaries that I did in order to encapsulate the process and help it find a new life. These videos document only some tiny fraction of the work and function both as a historical record and as a new artwork themselves.
