The 7th International Competition of Young Dance Performers OPUS 1 – short dance piece 2015 Celje, Slovenia, 13th June 2015

Slovenian National Theatre Celje, 13th June 2015

OPUS 1 - PLESNA MINIATURA / SHORT DANCE PIECE 2015

TEMA: PODOBA – TELO – GIB / razburljivo razmerje plesne in vizualne umetnosti

Vsakoletne teme naj bi mlade plesalce spodbudile v kritična razmišljanja o posameznih vprašanjih ter jim predstavljale povod za spoznavanje, raziskavo in študij določenih vsebin ali avtorjev / umetnikov. Letošnja tema spodbuja mlade plesne ustvarjalce, da vzgib za ustvarjanje svojih plesnih miniatur poiščejo v vizualnih umetniških delih in/ali njihovih avtorjih. Vizualna umetniška dela naj bodo navdih za premik od ustaljenih načinov ustvarjanja in predstavljanja. Naj bodo spodbuda za širitev koreografske domišljije in za razmislek kaj vse je lahko ples. Več v prilogi.

THEME: IMAGE – BODY – MOVE / the exciting relationship between dance and visual arts

The organiser of the competition publishes a theme every year that the young dance performers must use as a basis for their short dance piece. The annual themes are meant to stimulate critical thinking about specific issues and give the performers the opportunities to learn about, research and study specific topics or dance artists. This year's theme encourages young dance artists to seek the motive for creating their dance pieces in visual works of art and/or their authors. Visual works of art should serve as inspiration to escape the established norms of creation and presentation.They should induce a broadening of choreographic imagination and allow for pondering about all that dance can be.

Akira je prvobitna energija.

Ljudje delajo vsemogoče stvari v svojem življenju. Odkrivajo stvari, gradijo stvari…Od kod prihaja vso to znanje in energija? Nekoč je bil človek opica, kaj ne? In pred tem  reptil in riba. In še pred tem plankton in ameba. Celo majcena bitja, kot ta, imajo v sebi neverjetne količine energije. In še pred tem…Morda je bil genetski material v zraku in vodi. Celo v delcih prahu v prostoru. In če je vse to res, kakšen spominski zapis se skriva znotraj njih?
Zapis začetka univerzuma ali morda celo pred tem.
Kaj, če so bile kakšne napake v razvoju? Kaj, če gre nekaj narobe, npr. da je amebi nenadoma dana večja moč kot človeku?  Amebe ne gradijo svojih hiš in mostov, one samo požrejo vso hrano, ki jo je moč najti okrog sebe.

Akira is ultimate energy.

Humans do all kinds of things during their lifetime. Discovering things, building things… Where does all that knowledge and energy come from? Humans where once like monkeys right? And before that, like reptiles and fish. And even before that, plankton and amoebas. Even little creatures like those have incredible amounts of energy inside them. Even before that… Maybe there was genetic material in the air and water. Even in the particles of dust in space. And if that’s the truth, then what memories are hidden within them?
The beginning of the universe or maybe even before that.
What if there were some mistakes in the progression? What if something goes wrong, like an amoeba is suddenly given the higher powers that a human has? Amoebas don’t build their own houses and bridges. They just devour all the food they can find around them.
