Christine Bonansea: Asteria 1 (World Premiere)
Asteria 1 is part of a new choreographic series of 11 solo dances for women inspired by the 11 body lives of the mythical Greek figure Asteria. The project investigates aspects of temporality and transformation of the body in space. Based on the concept of "eternal recurrence" that is central to the writings of Friedrich Nietzsche, Bonansea created an iterative process using the idea that with infinite time and a finite number of events, they will recur again and again infinitely. The work presented at SFIAF is the first proposition of The 11 Possibilities of Asteria.
