This arduous, never-ending effort we put into fleeting moments. The effort that it takes to develop joint ideas. The effort that it takes to push people away. The effort that it takes to push them away even further. The energy, involvement, and perseverance we find in ourselves in order not to diverge from society and observe the proprieties. The lengths we go to in order to demonstrate productivity.
Every moment, every effort counts.
We lean towards the things we are pushed away from. We keep holding on…
We find a peace of mind in the familiar, we know what will come later.
Ever new beginnings. We notice the higher good, the common goal, maybe we will get somewhere together.
Artists participating in the iCoDaCo 2018-2020 project are working on a new performance entitled IT WILL COME LATER. In this case, the collective is examining the concept of transformation from the political, physical, spatial, and psychological perspectives. Its core is made up of six artists from five countries, who are creating their first joint work. Each artist brings in their own unique fascination with the power of transformation. Political transformations in regions such as Eastern Europe or China cause tense exchanges of views between them. It is the central point of these interactive and inclusive activities aimed at establishing a relationship with their communities and the audience. The project promotes values such as diversity, tolerance, and community, at the same time creating a new work of contemporary dance impacted by the eclectic artistic and personal heritage of each member of the collective. iCoDaCo also analyses collective artistic activities as a microcosm in large communities, such as the European Union, through the prism of identity, nationality, individuality, structures of power, and productivity.
