In the organizer's words:

DANCE

Small House

by Renan Martins / Unusual Symptoms

Connections - between people, places, bodies and communities - are a theme that repeatedly drives the Brazilian choreographer Renan Martins. Influenced by his personal experiences as a queer person of color in Europe, Renan Martins combines contemporary dance and musical references with political reflection in a fun and critical way. Having recently explored club culture as a collective practice in his ensemble pieces, he now turns his attention to the personal. Inspired by bell hooks' book All About Love: New Visions, Renan Martins explores our relationship to relationships and intimacy. His new work is a dance from separation to connection, about a society that constantly reinforces individualism. But if we are neurologically wired to connect with others, how long can we endure without relationship, without belonging, without togetherness?

"Love is an action, never simply a feeling." (bell hooks) - Connections - between humans, places, bodies, and communities - are topics that repeatedly concern Brazilian choreographer Renan Martins. Sensual and critical, influenced by his personal experiences as a queer Person of Color in Europe, Renan Martins joins contemporary dance and musical references with political reflexion. After having dealt with club culture as a collective practice in his most recent ensemble pieces, his gaze now falls upon the personal aspect. Inspired by bell hooks' book All About Love: New Visions, Renan Martins deals with our rapport toward relationships and intimacy. His new work is a dance from separation to connection, about a society that constantly enhances individualism. Yet if we are neurologically hardwired into having to join with others, how long can we endure being devoid of relationships, without belonging, without communion?
