Part ghostly repository of unconsumed sensuality, part installative kinetic fadeout, part somatic (strip)tease, This resting, patience<\/em> addresses attraction, voluntary objectification, proximity, and the aesthetics of bareness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Employing an experimental format, it upsets the passivity of installation and the time delineation and dramaturgical resolution of performance. It steps away from the tradition of viewing dance as an alienated spectacle, instead emphasizing its immanent sociability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In its devotion to the body, This resting, patience<\/em> proposes sensuousness and dancing as timeless and democratically available technologies for undoing the world and projecting the continuous present into a future that lasts\u2014quintessentially tender, infatuated, and attentive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A carpet of deep ultramarine blue, a small audience seated onstage within arm\u2019s reach of the dancers, and Dionne Warwick\u2019s \u201cWhat the World Needs Now\u201d playing on a loop that never quite resolves. For three hours, Ewa Dziarnowska<\/strong> and Leah Marojevi\u0107<\/strong> draw together and pull apart, fall into step and out of it, testing and tending in turn. The dance is slow and unafraid of its own duration, building its charge by holding to one thing until it changes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From one of Europe\u2019s most striking younger choreographers, the piece offers something few dance works do: no stage, only proximity. Watching stops being a private act and becomes something reciprocal, something the two dancers can feel taking place. It turns desire, nearness, and the patience intimacy asks into something felt rather than observed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
