STRUT Dance presented Italian artist Michele Rizzo’s bespoke offering Coalescing Towards for the PERTH MOVES hub in association with Tura and Perth Festival.
A choreography that combined contemplation with a gradual intensification of energy and cohesion, the performance explored two key concepts of repetition and unison to delve into the essence of movement as a medium for forging togetherness. It was rooted in Michele’s choreographic pieces from his series HIGHER xtn., Reaching, and Rest, which drew inspiration from communal dancing.
Coalescing Towards was created in collaboration with local and international dance artists from the Perth MOVES Laboratory and featured an original composition by Australian sound artist Ozlem Kesik, commissioned by Tura.
