Hypnotic movement, whirring microphones, blinking lights, intimate encounters: Physical Fractals is an up-close, sensory experience – a dance work that consumes space and bends time.
Two bodies drop and rise, weaving repetitive movements within a circle of witnesses, building tension with changes in sight and sound. Time appears to stretch as movement becomes faster and more fluid. Space becomes tighter as sound thickens and lights flash.
Created by independent choreographer Natalie Abbott and first presented at Next Wave 2012, Physical Fractals is a brave, uncompromising dance work performed by Natalie Abbott and Rebecca Jensen. An investigation into the presence of the audience, it challenges us to notice how we view and experience performance.
Physical Fractals invites you to join the circle. Let the movement take you and shake you.
