tectonic

TECTONIC is a study of seen and unseen forces that shape our world. It immerses dancer and audience alike in a moving landscape of resonant materials.

Metal plates vibrate, light refracts, the floor shifts and sound pulsates. Attuned to the forces that envolp, the dancer is unceasingly moved by movements other than its own.

The body dissolves and re-emerges in rhythm with the environment, blurring boundaries between transient and enduring, human and nonhuman: who moves? Inviting to dance with the unseen,

TECTONIC creates a sensory experience where space, set, light and sound become a performative elements with weight, texture, and agency: rubbing, resisting, and drifting apart. Drawing on ideas of sustainability, technology and ecology, TECTONIC is an invitation to move with the world.

Mirko Guido

His artistic practice is grounded in a physical and conceptual inquiry into the co-agency between body, space, and material things. Working across theatres, museums, and public spaces, he frames choreography as a system of responsiveness — a space to question the human subject’s position within broader physical and conceptual landscapes, where dance becomes a medium to re-perceive our entanglement with the world. Former dancer at Cullberg Ballet, he holds a master’s degree in New Performative Practices from Stockholm University of the Arts, and is an associated artist at Bora Bora.
