Performance excerpts.
Memories of marginal characters from literature and stories, collected by recording friends and acquaintances, are set to music equally fragmented, played on broken violins. These recountings of often blurred memories are presented in art gallery spaces and imagined as etchings of mysterious vignettes, altered by time. An assemblage of impressions of moments and characters that left an impression.
In Abeyance was a video project carried out by Vienna’s based Tanz Company Gervasi, for which dance practitioners were invited to contribute self recorded videos of themself improvising to recordings sent weekly by the company, during the 2020 lockdown.

Comissioned by Visionaire, the video captures artist Ryan McNamara in the process of staging his hyper kaleidoscopic dance piece ME3M, in 2014, at Miami Art Basel, collaging footage from rehearsals, meetings, venue prepping, and the show itself, into a three-and-half minutes video documentary “ballet” of its own.
