Inviting moments of stillness
A choreographic-performative research on the practice of touch.
During his residency at radialsystem, André Uerba investigates the different dimensions of touch – its properties, qualities and complexities. Through movement, ritardando and focus on the body, he and his co-residents research out different forms of becoming acquainted with and sensing one another as a means to uncover the potential of togetherness. He thus continues his examination on the topic of touch, which he embarked upon in 2018.
