Osterfestival Tirol 2022 – Vis Motrix 2022

The Bonn-based dance ensemble CocoonDance is in search of "unthought-of" bodies. Together with her dancers, Rafaële Giovanola rethinks familiar body images and thus creates artistic bodies unknown to us

In Vis Motrix, four dancers move through the space as if from another world, becoming an organism of human, animal and machine and creating a hypnotic pull that one cannot escape. What is the moving force, the soul (vis motrix) of these hybrid beings that both takes them to the limits of what is physically possible and plays with our perception, changing it?
