Scary solo
There she is, moving around, pondering over number of options; should she settle for a puddle or travel the field? Wait for something to rearrange the plot? Or pull out a scream and coerce a displacement? Mrawrrrr… soon enough she gets stuck in a groove, leaving the uncertain unresolved. After all, the point is that she moves, that she actually moves. And the kind of response her steps are counting on.
ragbags of moves, underwater oblivion, single images, shifting landscapes
body uncertain, caught in a loop, patterns repeated and transformed, hair dancing unleashed
at once old lady and reckless child, dancing in too many directions, continuously lost in translation
Scary solo is a playground of negativity for the optimistic restless, she who dances wherever she lands, with everything to fear and nothing to lose. Something quite scary, of course, yet harmless and rather pathetic.
