COUPLE-LIKE # 2

COUPLE-LIKE  # 2

Starting from kinesthetic propositions, Ugo Dehaes and Keren Levi have explored different modes of physical interactions in their duet Couple-Like (2006 - 2011).  


After 5 years of performing the duet, Het Lab (Utrecht) commissioned Ugo and Keren to delegate the work to Martje Pasman and Ryaan Djojokarso and adapt it for youngsters. 
Couple-Like # 2 is a journey of two young people in a search to be 'as one'', as they try to meet over and over again, observing in the other what each of them is not.

Couple-Like # 2 is a winner of  a VCSD award 2011:
"In the performance Couple-Like # 2 the two dancers achieve poignant and ambiguous intimacy.
The performance wonderfully manage to get a sensitive issue and a delicate shape overwhelmingly across to young people

The jury of VCSD
