FLUFF somehow grew out of its title. fluff as something soft like the feathers of a bird or maybe some dust in a corner and also fluff as something trivial, superficial or failing. The piece continues my research into different strategies of choreography as camouflage through simple and intimate gestures, without spectacle or seeking to guide. Different textures and movements slowly slide into each other, allowing for an ambiguous dance that withdraws from representation and opens up to an arcane yet contemplative experience. fluff here is equally the material as well as the space in-between- forms appear and are emptied out again, like a sculpture park that one happens to pass by.
