Isabelle Schad

Mirroring

Duration approx. 60 mins.

“Mirroring” is an encounter with dancer and choreographer Josephine Findeisen, including her physical qualities, energy, and voice, which become the delicate traces of a detailed, sensual, and poetic drawing. Her movement research on hands and arms meets Isabelle Schad's ongoing choreographic practice around the universal power of the hands, the principles of shifting the centre of gravity and aikido. In “Mirroring”, Findeisen lifts, drags, and spins metal plates: heavy materials become her instrument, her clothing, or even an extension of her body. Hybrid relationships connecting weight and sound, labour and sensuality, voice and echo gradually unfold in a reflective space.
