Dance & visual performance, 2019

Time from 1h to 4h ongoing durational
LUX is a durational performance combining dance and machines reflecting sunlight in choreographed patterns.
This meditative four-hour performance happens with respect to what’s already there: the weather influences the ability to reflect the sunlight, the architecture and the soundscape of the performance venue. The movement of the dancer, the position of the sun, the space and the sound (natural and electronically generated) are linked.
As a poetic living installation, LUX invites the audience to be witness to a contemplative and magical experience, evoking the beauty, the power and the necessity of the sun.
NOTES
LUX could exist for places like museums, galleries, alternatives outdoor as well as indoor spaces.
According to the context, the performance could happen integrally outside or through a passage from the indoor to the outdoor of the location.
The logistic of LUX does not have any particular technical requirements except for the presence of the daily light: it could be either outdoor or indoor (with a direct source).
The machines are robotic, interactive and solar PHOTOSPHERE installations created by Mark IJzerman.
