Excerpts of studio showing of Fast Portraits February 26th 2011 in DanceHouse, Dublin
Fast Portraits... a singular moment captured from diverse dancing perspectives.
Inspired by the realistic obsrvations of the human state by artists Bill Viola and Carravaggio, Rex Levitates expolre the layers of emotion and memory that infuse the captured images and transfer them into movement. The unleashing of the inherent, hidden human intensity creates complicated, life-affirming and sometimes surreal dialogues between the performers that connect them in a way previously unimagined.
