Notebook Series

Berlin-Premiere by Colette Sadler
In the frame of 9. Tanznacht Berlin 2016

The choreographic work of Colette Sadler depicts hybrid bodies in a state of transfor­mation. “Notebook Series” uses her archive of past work as a foundation for creating a kaleidoscope of otherness. Her partner on stage is a laptop that records and responds to her movements and words. In a dialogue between man and machine, Sadler draws awareness to different modes of perception and opens up a space in which the body cannot be labeled.

Choreography, Concept: Colette Sadler, Philine Rinnert | Performance: Colette Sadler | Stage, Visuals, Light: Philine Rinnert | A production by Colette Sadler, in co-production with Visual Art Quadriennale Düsseldorf / KIT (Kunst im Tunnel) Deutschland and Dance 4 UK. With support from CAMPO (Belgium).
