Lapsúlyos || Certain Solitude [2023 | EN]

choreographic moving image [dancefilm] – short; 08:07

The seeds of this choreographic moving image lay in my experiences being in the gym, running on the treadmill, and letting my perception shift, in which shift I could notice the choreography of this space around. The film oscillates between “everyday movement” and “dance”. I was also inspired by the endurance of muscles, the discharges of the body, especially the sweat, and the skin itself in this process.

As well touch plays an important role: how we touch different material qualities? How do we let ourselves been touched by the material, or by other people? How our eyes as beholders touch the screen while meeting with the images, and what may the images touch in ourselves? Skin and metal. Warm and cold. Inside and outside. A pause. A longing. Certain Solitude.
