This vivacious and fluid dance is the result of the author´s exploration into the differences between conscious and spontaneous movement. The rhythm of the moving changes and vectors model the surrounding space and surprise with an unexpected focus on detail.
Mein Körper folgt bewussten und unbewussten/intuitiven Reaktionen, die sich zu komplexen Bewegungen entwickeln und so eine Ganzheit herstellen.

(...) Although the unpleasant drone of the electronics is intrusive, in “Fleischlos” she systematically breaks down her body again and again in a space constructed from neon tubes. Until the various attempts to coordinate hands and feet with each other and the scrutinising measurement of one’s own self culminate with her lying on the floor. (...)

More Quotes
“Fleischlos” appears as a meditation of the body on the body; the dancer seems to explore it, rediscovering it muscle by muscle, particle by particle, with cautious and rigorously measured movements. Slowly she goes back up from the feet to the face, as if searching for the physical and anatomical limits of the human structure, questioning the usability of meaning in choreographic discourse and the possibility of fusion between bodily forms of the everyday and abstract figurations proper to the dance language, in an inner dialogue that proceeds by contrasts, searching for a dynamic harmony that escapes the eye and remains concealed among the different forms, but that exists and appears clearly in the unity and coherence of the discourse.

Marco Bosetti – Collettivo Dove & Quando, Juli 2015
“Fleischlos” does not give us pre-packaged answers, but guides us through the staged body into a universe of open questions that we might answer from time to time, from step to step, in a different way; without the limiting constraint of meaning, without the selfish need to understand; constantly redefining the bodily alphabet, which by its very nature cannot be constrained into a precise pattern.
“Fleischlos” is to be watched sitting upside down, with the butt facing the sky, and with the willingness (and freedom) to leave certainties and answers elsewhere, behind, allowing oneself the pleasure of seeing, of feeling, of being “other.”
