at the edge of connection begins with the idea of collapse, a choreographic practice where orientation is not determined by fixed coordinates but by the resonance between body, sound and space. Movement emerges from the dynamics of sound waves and vibrations that shape unseen architectures. Here, vertical and horizontal axes lose their hierarchy; every point in space holds equal significance. The body attunes itself to what resonates, not through intention or form but through a continuous transfer of energy. Movement is shaped by the consequence of forces acting upon each other. The space does not frame the performance. The sound of the space structures the vocabulary of movement, defining its temporality not through performative expectations or dramaturgical arcs but through its own internal necessity. at the edge of connection explores the edges of what choreography can be, where structures dissolve, and where movement resists classification.
