ECOS
Featuring a lineup of three world premieres, Ecos unveils the many complex layers of the human experience to illuminate the core of what moves us forward.
"Ecos brings together extraordinary artists to explore the complexities of our shared human experience," said AXIS Dance Company's Artistic Director Nadia Adame. "Each piece in this Home Season reflects a unique perspective, yet together they resonate with a powerful, collective spirit. This season is a heartfelt invitation to connect, reflect, and be moved together. I'm honored to share this evening with our community, as we push the boundaries of what dance can reveal about our lives."
Adds Post:ballet Artistic Director Robin Dekkers: "After numerous collaborations with AXIS Dance Company, including the film version of my piece 'Flutter' commissioned by Lincoln Center, Post:ballet is thrilled to be collaborating with AXIS on this original work by Jorge Crecis. The company hopes that this model of sharing resources with another dance company to create a new work that can be performed by each company separately as well as together will inspire other arts organizations to explore creative ways of working together to commission innovative artists and connect diverse communities."
The three world premieres that make up Ecos are:
Piel de Luna: From AXIS Artistic Director Nadia Adame, Piel de Luna draws inspiration from the mystical energy of the moon, exploring how its gravitational pull not only affects the tides but also weaves invisible threads connecting the human spirit. The piece unfolds in a series of interconnected duets, trios, and quartets symbolizing the gravitational forces that pull individuals together.
Harmony of Souls is a duet from Bay Area dance maker Dazaun Soleyn that investigates trust and our innate sense of connection. Through movement, music, and visual storytelling, this piece blurs the boundaries between our individual and interconnected experience. It moves through spaces of beauty, tension and eventual release, capturing the essence of the bonds that make us human.
Blueprints of being: From award-winning Spanish choreographer Jorge Crecis, Blueprints of being is a dynamic dance piece in collaboration with Berkeley's renowned Post:ballet that blends the realms of biography and fiction. Each dancer represents both a real individual and an emblematic archetype, inviting audiences to see parts of their own stories and identities echoed on stage.
