Embracing stasis is a performance questioning and exploring certain notions of force and attack in interaction with tenderness and care. It seeks to approach and illuminate moments of simultaneous presence or correlation between these elements and focuses on their transitional zones. The work is navigated by a curiosity about situations that could be both offensive confrontations and encounters of care. Situations of stasis, as dynamic situations of equally opposing forces are aimed for and met through an urge for tangibility. By working with the idea of form as possible carrier of diverse qualities, Martial Arts practices supply the process.
