Premiered on the 12th March 2019 at Ponec Theater, Prague 

​

The project explores the artistic practice and multiple-output potentiality of a system of non-representational physical communication between performers. Using dependency as a motor for development, every stimulus is perceived and processed in real-time while attempting not to name them. The emerging ever-regenerating flow of kinetic information creates multiple meanings, levels of instruction and sensations for the viewer.

 

​Instead of acting out a previously agreed representation of reality, the performers are engaging in a physical discussion, embodying and trying to process what they understand, as well as what they don’t.

 

The body practice could be seen in analogy to the inner movements of a society – movements that test, map and transform a specific existing structure in a specific moment of time, generating a possibility for multiple readings, as well as recognition of basic human values and relational aspects.

 

​Score#44 - Methods of Excavation was produced by DOT504 - dance company -  based in Prague, CZ.
