Matters of Rhythm
Matters of Rhythm
Music is moving in waves. It travels through space and time. Light also travels in waves and needs a body to reflect. Light and bodies moving together through space and time are constantly creating a choreography of visual frequencies.
In Matters of Rhythm, Rita Mazza develops choreographies that focus on the relationship between the body of the performer and the light as the source of movement. They explore how light and movement come together, communicate, interact, build a relationship and, in doing so, produce music for the eyes. Mazza and Kritten Tangsoo also question how the contrasts between nature and capitalism, between circular and linear rhythms, shape our movements.
