Interactive Performance | Draw Me Close
14.Januar 2023 16:00 - 21:00
Draw Me Close is a solo, multidisciplinary performance that combines drawing with dance.
The walls and floor are covered in large sheets of paper, and Matagumpay is a medium for mark-making. Alone, he can only move languidly, aimlessly, producing weak and noncommittal lines. At what point will you interrupt? Lead him in dance, or guide his hand, to draw together. Adopt stewardship over his body, over the movement and the marks. What do you desire to see, and how messy would you get to make it happen? Depression doesn’t lift magically.
Draw Me Close is a staging of trust. Not an abandonment of personal responsibility, not a resignation to defeat, but an insistence that when I make myself this weak, I will be held so closely. There must be something worth surrendering to.
*This is an interactive performance. Wear clothing that you don’t mind getting marked with charcoal and/or ink.
