«I Noticed» Poetry and Dance
«I Noticed» is a piece that I created last year and has been selected to participate in two International Choreographic Competitions! It is a choreography with four dancers where poetry and dance create a dialogue between the oral language and the movement. Delicate and mysterious in the beginning, the dancers find the way to translate the text into their bodies creating emotions with it, by noticing their own thoughts and fears.
« (…) I noticed my own heart beating, breath passing through my nostrils
my feet walking, eyes seeing,
(…) I noticed the sea, I noticed the music – I wanted to dance.»
De: Allen Ginsber; «On the Cremation of Chogyam Trungpa VIdyadhara» (1987), Cosmopolitan Greetings: Poems 1986-1992 by Allen Ginsberg.
