Before there was earth or sea or the sky that covers everything, Nature appeared the same throughout the whole world: what we call chaos: a raw confused mass, nothing but inert matter, badly combined discordant atoms of things, confused in the one place. (Ovid's Metamorphoses, Bk I:1-20 The Primal Chaos)
In this dance performance, Ellen Crofton choreographs a state of repetition, tension, and unfolding; seeking iterations and rhythms in chaos.
With echoes of line dance, renaissance dance, and everyday gestures, Ellen moves between precision and disorder. What happens when we seek continuum and patterns in chaotic states within our bodies, our systems, or our communities? Perhaps the rhythms we find allow us to remain rooted in shapelessness.
'iterations' is an an offering or invitation – how can we collectively feel rooted when we dance in the chaos? And how can we use this as power against harmful systems or as a tool for protest?
