Choreography: Narelle Benjamin
Time: 14 minutes
The Shape of Water is a journey of sensory perception in which the symbolic bond between the human spirit and the flowing of the sea is explored. Is our thinking consistent and straight or does it flow, like the tides?

Timecopy Timecopy
NL, 2007
Director: Carina Hesper
Choreography: Gabriela Tarcha
Time: 10 minutes
TimeCopy is a short experimental dance film. It was inspired by the Children’s book Momo, from the German autor Michael Ende. The film is about time and the vibe of a mass of people, in this case dancers. In real the dancer danced very slowly. Then it was up to the director to manipulate the speed of the movements, and to manipulate the order of the choreography
