DESCRIPTION:Ewa Dziarnowska is a Polish choreographer and dancer based in Berlin,
considered one of the most striking emerging figures on the European
contemporary dance scene. Her show This resting, patience has helped
secure her place on the international stage. Based on careful observation
of movement and relationships, this performance departs from the
traditional model of dance reception. It offers an experience centered on
duration and presence, rather than closed narration or dramaturgy.

This resting, patiencedance / durational performance
On the floor, a thick ultramarine blue carpet. The voice of Dionne Warwick
and her song What the World Needs Now in a loop. Ewa Dziarnowska and Leah
Marojević, both dressed in blue, deploy undulating movement in the space.
With generosity and attention, they play with attraction, repetition, form,
and emotions to choreographically explore physical desire, lack, hope, and
loss. In solo or unison, they challenge each other and make contact between
themselves or, at times, with the audience. The proximity of bodies breaks
the audience's passivity: the gaze becomes movement, and movement - a way
of being seen, a reciprocity that disrupts classical performance. For
Dziarnowska, improvisation and embodied knowledge are bulwarks against our
need for rationality and linearity. Between installation and spectacle, her
projects transform our consumerist gaze into a transformative encounter.
Dance becomes a space that suspends time to make room for complexity, while
a sensous presence build a  connection. Carried by growing virtuosity and
emotional power, This resting, patience is a celebration of desire and
sensuality that shows how dance can save us in dark times.
The Belgian premiere of This resting, patience is co-created in
collaboration with artists closely linked to the Polish art scene, such as
Krzysztof Bagiński (music) and Jacqueline Sobiszewski (lighting). In June,
the performance will also premiere at the Malta Festival Poznań. Ewa
Dziarnowska is a dancer and choreographer based in Berlin. Her works,
including This resting, patience, A Room With a Better View,
and 4677684728466.com, explore improvisation as a method and mode of
thought, focusing on relationship, rhythm and experience. She creates in
real time, blending precision and spontaneity, while questioning dance
production and reception norms. She has notably collaborated with Alex
Baczyński-Jenkins, Michele Rizzo, Enad Marouf, and Elena Francalanci. ©
