Self-Storage

Part #4 of the choreographic series BODIES OF CAPITALISM

In their video and sound installation „Self-Storage”, Antje Velsinger/ new trouble gather physical extremes between high performance and exhaustion, growth and retreat. In a labyrinth of hallways and warehouses, these bodies search for a place to stay. Have they been discarded or are they finding refuge?

Self-Storage brings the body images and voices of the choreographic series “Bodies of Capitalism“ – consisting of the pieces „Massive Dreams“, „Dreams in a cloudy space“ and „PERFORM!“ – into a common space for the first time. What do the different bodies and voices have to say to each other and what happens when they meet in the fictional space of “Self-Storage”?
Self-Storage had its premiere in the context of „Bodies of Capitalism – Acquired Taste“ at the Gewächshaus Hamburg.
