It Contains Hard Parts is a dance performance, which is centered around group dynamics and the individual’s behaviour in different communities. The central interest of the project lies in the socio-political tension between an individual and a group, focusing on how this duality manifests in the body and is negotiated in physical interactions.
What moves us within a group? What moves a group? Throughout our entire lives we act in diverse social constellations. From the moment we are born, each of us moves within different groups and communities during our development. Therefore, we find ourselves confronted with mechanisms, expectations and practices of group dynamics and have to act accordingly.
The piece is implemented with a young team of four dancers. Together with them we analyse diverse social situations from the aspect of the relation between an individual and the group and how it can be displayed through a composed choreography.
