 Dance on film - Emotional Reaction.

Screendance has existed since the invention of motion pictures. But this hybrid art form, which is also called "dance film" and "cinedance," has remained a fringe genre of filmmaking—until now. During the pandemic, the screen has arguably become the most popular place for dancemakers to explore their craft.

This post will cover my latest creation translated into dance.                                  The film weaves theatre craft, emotive dance into a unique digital experience that celebrates the collective energy of forces for positive change.

 What do you do when you are in a moment of your life where you feel stuck and want to express yourself? 

If you are anything like me, you dance ... you create. 

 This project has come with the urgency how wanting to express a moment of my life into dancing. 

 As a human being, we go through different emotions and moments of our life where we are looking to change or make that step forward that will change the everyday monotony of things or habits. 

 Personally creating makes my worries away. 

The concept behind this work is an emotional reaction and how artists can transform any experiences into art and so into dance.

I   translated this idea purely organic, bringing my feelings during a challenging life experience within the piece.

The work will play around two fundamental IDEAS:

The idea of significant and extraordinary movements translates into an urge of expression through the movements as a dancer we only have our human body to express our feelings. 

So this will be my fire in life, my ambition.

On the opposite side, we have a sense of impediment of not be able to translate what the heart is asking to do. 

I translated it as my physical impairment and the difficulty that we face every day in life no matter which age you are or which status you are. 

If you think about everyday things that life present to us and translate those obstacles or experience into positive moments or meaningful experience life has a different flavour. 

It's all about which point of view you are facing.  

This concept of life experience will be connected to everyone in some different ways because everyone in life goes through different experiences that will shape our present and future and the way we think in the present.

Dancing is about being exactly who you want to be in that moment so enjoy the movie and don't be afraid of expressing your feelings in your own way.
