Kristin

2024

  

Kristin is a choreographic sketch made of a series of physical positions, through which the dancer moves. In constant transformation, the dancer passes through various situations by changing her bodily position and its relation to the space around her.
The solo is a continuation of May Zarhy’s research into the relation between memory and movement. Together with the dancer Amit Zaretsky, they explore how her dance is driven by dealing with invisible forces, which are made visible for the audience and herself through her dancing. At some moments one can recognize a word or a context to that which she goes through, and then the moment passes and the agitation continues.
The solo is an accumulation of experiences condensed into a movement monologue called ‘Kristin’.
