Raeyoung Park: GRASP
Dance research in agony
In modern times, remarkable advances in technology allow a more comfortable life, while on the other hand, they pose serious social risks. Raeyoung Park's and Dongju Kim's duo Grasp tackles technology that inspires both movement and emotions. It investigates how we manipulate our feelings by treating them as tools. The performance sharply articulates the agony of the ego dictating and managing its desires. On the line between man and technology. Arbitrary, regulated expression versus free and liberated. Between the active and the decaying.
