ICARUS PROJECT

2010

The sound projected into the audience space is the movement and the movement on stage is the sound. “The Icarus Project” three dancers explore movement as an auditory, as well as a visual experience. What journey does movement-as-sound take us on? How does sound define the space through which it moves?
