Versus:
A formal inquisition into the case of the moving body, proceeding step by step through arms, feet, hands, teeth, and legs. These ordinary names which we assign to the body’s parts suggest a thinkable poetics of the body-in-itself, as opposed to a dance in service to metaphorical imagery. “Versus” complicates dance’s relationship to language further, with a performance of original music and accompanying verses in Inglash, an invented language.
Versus will unfold over three nights, with different performances each night.
