Homo Novus 2015

Programme

55

Radouan Mriziga
8, 9 November 18.30, Koka Rīga | 10 and 7 Eur

In 55 Moroccan choreographer Radouan Mriziga subtly plays with the perspective and the expectations of the audience. Constructed around the number five and exploring the body’s relationship to space through simple gestures, he gradually begins to create an intricate floor pattern with chalk, tape and his body. Balanced delicately between the aesthetic influences of minimalism and Oriental ornamentation, the emerging forms appear like an unavoidable consequence of the connection between his physicality and the space.

55 is the first creation by Radouan Mriziga and first part of a dance trilogy around the power of numbers, approaching dance from an architectural perspective and using body as central instrument for the performance.

Double bill offers 55 by Radouan Mriziga and Sculpting in Time by Cie Nacera Belaza on the same night for 15 Eur (reduced price – 10 Eur). Both venues are close by and there is enough time to walk from one venue to another between the performances. The duration of the whole evening is 2h 15min.
