About While Taking Shape
I know it’s happening, but who is it happening to?
– Kae Tempest
The research for While Taking Shape began from a desire to dive deeper into questions of connection and responsibility. What does it mean to bear witness? What does that ask of us?
Choreographer Amparo González Sola brings these questions back to small gestures. She invites us to view gestures as gateways or potential connections. Together with the performers, she explores how gestures carry memories—by embodying them, slowing them down, pausing, and reshaping them. What pasts and futures are hidden within them? How is one gesture in one body connected to others, carried by different bodies?
