I am a reborn smoker, dancing the absent body
Robert Steijn: dance + words
Robert Steijn shows how at the age of 45 he started to dance on stage. It was his only way to get in contact physically with all the people who he lost in his life. It will be an intimate lecture demonstration (telling and dancing at the same time) investigating how the mind works when it puts itself on the path of imagination and experimentation.
This new solo started as a lecture given at a conference about the absent body at the School for New Dance Development in Amsterdam.
A sensory journey through shifts of awareness and physical experiences, until stillness is found in sound and dance.
