3,2,1 (The Walk)
2023
It is inspired by the characteristics and rhythm of the fashion shows and the fashion aesthetics. The upcycled costume design and it's materials has been influencing the choreographic work from the beginning challenging the ordinary ways to feature costume design in dance works. The outfits designed by Angel Emmanuel for the piece are made from recycled materials. Their textiles, weight, thickness and size add their own dimension to the dancers' movement.
Following an accelerating energy the work invites the audience to reflect on the multidimensional topic.
Premiered as part of Amos Rex´ s Generation 23 exhibition in 2023.
