THE EVER TICKING CLOCK IMPROVISATION TO A REAL — TIME CREATION
For the Illustration week of Tel-Aviv, I invited Zazua dance, sound and drawing incubator, to perform for a series of moving experiments at The Lab. In a ZAZUA performance, a huge sheet of paper is rolled out upon the stage. Then, 30-50 minutes of interplay between painter and dancer, to the scenery of a live musician, turn the paper into an Action Portrait—a gist memory of the joint, almost Tantric, time capsule. Throughout the work the dancer treads upon the paper as the action-painter traces the dance and captures its mark. The ever ticking clock turns the performance from an improvisation to a real-time creation, and the audience from spectators to witnesses of “revelation”.
