With "still.dependent", HANSCHITZ & BEIERER present a full-length dance/circus performance that uses the Cyr Wheel to explore the problematic human-object relationship in the modern age, exploring the Cyr Wheel as a trio instrument, performer and spatial object.
As humans, we are used to seeing ourselves as an autonomous authority on planet Earth - however, recent technological developments such as AIs and planetary processes such as the climate crisis are significantly shaking up this perspective. The classic subject-object dichotomy has finally come to an end. Natural and cultural objects have power over us. They structure our everyday lives, influence the way we talk to each other, how we touch each other, what we feel, how we move, whether we move, how we love, how we imagine the future and whether it still exists at all. The Cyr Wheel forms our material starting point and becomes a vivid representative of the countless silent cultural and natural objects with which we are in daily contact. In our performance we want to listen to these objects, examine our relationship to them - and invite a completely new view of them & ourselves. We are closely interwoven with our world and its objects - it is time to feel them!
Together with the two performers Linda Pilar Brodhag and Lorena Madurga, we embark on a choreographic journey to free the Cyr Wheel from its aesthetic restrictions and its reduction as a solo instrument. In the trio, completely new fields of research arise both physically and choreographically, which require in-depth research into dance and circus techniques such as contact improvisation and partner acrobatics. In the creation process, this movement research is combined with object, video, sound research and social science research approaches to create a cross-genre dance/circus production.
