YES CONTOURS TIME DISORIENTATION XT is a performance on choreographic strategies of disorientation, not only in space or time but also in feeling. It plays with what is recognised as a body in order to find moments of new affinities. Disorientations make it possible to search for locations that accommodate our bodies.

REVIEW

"The rethinking of access in choreographic terms is an important contribution not only to dance, but to the entire field of choreographic politics. How is access created or made impossible in and by movement? How can methods of softness be put to work outside of dance to challenge the normalizing power of choreographic politics, the normalized movement patterns it creates as well as the normalization of moving bodies?"
