BACKSPACE

An abstract, performed movement research. What makes the difference to a performance when we cultivate a stronger awareness of the 180 degrees behind us and rely on this energy field of the Backspace?

​

The phenomenon of the “Po Hu”, the least visible and touchable part of the back. Between the

shoulder blades, where thinking has little effect. The eyes do not reach there, but intuition and instinct do. Exploring the Po Hu gives space for touch, authenticity and enhanced presence.
