My life top a certain degree became a nomadic life. It is hard for me to stay in one place so at the same time it is difficult for me to settle.

dance and choreography: Natalia Iwaniec & Valeria D'Amico. Project based on a research between movement and photography. Both dancers use polaroid camera to take pictures during the performance. All the piece is concentrated on movements that meet stilness,like in photography. Choreography use movements that can be easily pictured by camera and by an audience eye. From simple gestures and natural movement as a starting point, dancers are visiting solos, canon, unison with complex and sophisticated choreography. Photography is leading the performer throught a journey that visits family portraits, paparazzi,zoo and catwalks, where models present their body in unconfortable and awkward positions till does not belong to model beauty world anymore. Inspired by statues, it explores unnatural and impossible stillness that meets physical and mental weakness. Instantaneo is working on the interaction of taking pictures and being pictured and the consequences of it. The creation indeed is a sequence of images that are representing relationships, meetings, memories, power, insecurity, obstentation. The work in progress had its first show on the 8th of December 2014 in Torino at atelier Giorgi and Spazio Mouv'. Watch trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LgKFwHiTFWc&feature=share R ED SHOES

W ramach cyklu Obszar tańca Teatr BARAKAH w Krakowie zaprasza na pokaz spektakli ukazujących szerokie spektrum tańca współczesnego – od choreografii po improwizację strukturalną
Taniec i koncept: Natalia Iwaniec i Iwona Olszowska

Jest to metoda pracy z ciałem pomocna dla tancerzy, jak i dla wszystkich, którzy lubią się ruszać; świadoma praca zakładająca instynktowne poruszanie całą strukturą ciała. Dzięki tej metodzie ciało uzyskuje większą giętkość i elastyczność. GaGa wykorzystuje różne jakości, np. gęstość, shake, groove. Ważnym aspektem jest poczucie humoru i podejście z dużym dystansem do siebie i swojego ciała.

Pieces of Mosaic by Elena Jacinta
In January 2013 she performed in dance festival Resolution!2013 in theplace in London in piece choreographed by Elena Jacinta "Pieces of Mosaic".The choreography is a reflection on the idea of performance – the expectations that the performance sets, physical and emotional experiences related to it. The piece is constructed in a form of ‘mosaic’, where short solos and duets create a multilayered pattern, a non-linear narrative that emerges from a juxtaposition of various elements. It’s a mosaic made of abstract movement, text and music that are weaved together to create a labyrinth of meanings and interpretations – a subjective picture of a performer’s world.
Dancers and creative collaborators: Natalia Iwaniec, Tomomi Kosano and Carys Staton.
Premiered on 22 January 2013 at The Place, London as part of Resolution! 2013.

"...the choreography of Pieces of Mosaic riveted and surprised from beginning to end. Three unbelievably sinuous dancers, oozing with technical ability and confidence, present a mish-mash of movement fragments. Snippets of ideas inform the splintered contents which the women present in various amalgamations. Virtuosic technique in one section is contrasted with a comical gestural motive in the next. It begins to look like a game of charades. Can you guess what this action signifies or what happens next, the performers quizzically seem to ask. No, I can’t and that’s what makes this piece a bemusing winner."
