A Memoir in Dance

Ayushi Alva / Czech Republic, India / 2024 / World Premiere / 10 min.


synopsis

An intimate soliloquy about memory, dreams and anxiety, which takes on the form of a therapeutic dialogue, is the prelude to the footage of an original dance performance in which the movements of the dancer and her double are gently desynchronised. The artist's voice, in a distinctly stereophonic recording, interprets a text based on her diary.
