Bouncing Narratives

Bouncing Narratives

Bouncing Narratives is a jumbled mess—a playful wash of images, sounds and movements that elicits the fine line of pure joy and trauma narratives. It centers around a trauma that cannot be expressed in words, that bounces back again and again. The spectators lie on soft mats and follow the performers on a trampoline above them. The use of minimal and repetitive vocabulary, like bouncing and sliding and nuances of rhythm and speed becomes the main component of a performative act that animates the installation and drives towards a trance-like intensity. In this interdisciplinary collaborative project Roza Moshtaghi proposes a heterotopian space for the alienated body, the vulnerable self of a “monster identity” and for the gap between the self and the “other”.
The performance takes place as part of the tanzpol festival. More information can also be found at: .
