About Me (human/individual)/interests, work..short bio/ THis is the most important. It is the only way to know that you are not a SPAMBOT!Be generous!
KONCENTRAT is an artistic group, not a contemporary dance theatre. KONCENTRAT is a brand/trademark that imprints joint and individual projects of the group members. Common goal/denominator for our actions is - shared by all - way of perceiving art. KONCENTRAT does not stand for any particular style/trend in art. We seek our own way, own narratives, own language and intonation to tell the stories. The spectator is the main aspect in KONCENTRAT's thinking: we tend to seduce, provoke, bore, irritate, disappoint, but also enchant. We all derive from contemporary theatre that merges dramatic theatre, moving theatre, contemporary dance, performance - those aspects steer to/ focus on immediate confrontation with the audience. The second aspect of our focus is the performer. However, the performer means for us more than just the human element on stage; performer means also light, sound and the space as well. In our work we approach the dancer/actor with the same attention as every other element/ingredient that exists on 'stage'. KONCENTRAT seeks ways to manipulate the spectator, but not straightforward, not through shocking. We soak our work with intellectual load of references/suggestions, with amusement and formal provocation, but with beauty of the picture, perfectionism and humor as well. The name of our group shows our great believe in indispensable intensity and importance of all elements of the performance, in order to achieve total/complete/extensive influence on the spectator. The method of KONCENTRAT's working: we do not impose artistic decisions on one another. We work in mutual open-mindness, interacting with every single participant of the project. We trust our tastes and instincts - we look for inspirations in our partner's perception of ourselves.
