Conditions of Carriage: The Jumping Project - dir. by Preethi Athreya

An experimental dance piece exploring the act of jumping and how it impacts individual and collective physicality in spaces.

16 October 2016

In the space of a square pit, a group of people negotiated the force of gravity within their bodies. The cavity of the pit resonated with the impact of bodies hurtling in and springing out. The stability of the square was challenged by an ever-moving central axis around which spirals of running bodies accumulate. The centre gave way to dispersion, chaos, reorder. Time became a marker pulling bodies into orbit. In relation to one another, individualities surface, giving way to a new sense of the body in the space.
