drift (2002)
cie. toula limnaios
“drift” is a production created in 2002 in co-production with the bauhaus dessau for the bauhaus stage.
“i am the unfinished, the imperfect human being, i live in a vortex of change like in a white fog, in non-sense and when my mind is full of restlessness, my soul cannot reflect the world. our fears eat up the ropes of life, but i am learning to be here. becoming a human being: this me, a pattern of something never designed. the suffering, the defenceless, the sensually limited, the fearful, the planning, the weak, the destructive, the forgetful, the ageing, the mortal human being.”
“… instead of touching each other with someone else’s hand, they fan themselves or expel compressed breath or wrap their arms around their own waists. this results in tragicomic situations, like the attempt to fly in a state of glare, like orthographic gestures for the formulation of a notice of loss. ralf r. ollertz reinforces this intended impression with his congenial composition, which, as an alienated adaptation of a godard soundtrack, appears like the music to an atomised film.” (mitteldeutsche zeitung, andreas hillger, 2002)
