How do the dancers of Amos Ben-Tal react to Gosse de Kort's ever-changing environment? Will it be a symbiosis or a confrontation?
Dance and architecture meet. In Interval, the intricate movement language of choreographer Amos Ben-Tal and the dancers of OFFprojects interact with a fascinating kinetic installation by interdisciplinary artist Gosse de Kort.
In this hypnotic performance, the dancers must navigate their relationships and intuitions in an ever-shifting architectural landscape. Does the space influence the dancers, do the dancers influence the space, when is it symbiosis and when confrontation?\How do we find the balance between personal freedom of movement and empathy for the other in a shared space?
