CREATION LAB MALA KLINE & CO., SONGLINES 13-17 NOVEMBER 2017

SONGLINES is an improvisation project. It is a series of performative events that share the same format but differ in the cast, length, location and engagement of spectators. Similar to aboriginal songlines that map the dreaming of a specific landscape and embody it as a dance, song or painting, SONGLINES as real time compositions map the dreaming present in the performative encounter. They are created through the dialogue with the visible and the invisible elements of the landscape of the event, including the performers, the space, its context and its forms, and the audience. Dance, music and light are composed on the base of the “diagram of tree of life” and 22 principles of creation. SONGLINES open up contemplative spaces of pure emotion and abstract feeling, spaces where time slows down, where sensibility and receptivity of the audience is heightened and a different quality of feeling and being (together) can be experienced.
