Together with the two dancers Dani Brown and Evangelia Randou and composer HAUSCHKA, Waierstall and her collaborators investigate the relationship between man/woman and the environment, ecology and choreography, archaeology and future utopia:
„100,000,000 years from now, you, a curious explorer, stumble upon this planet. Your sophisticated sensors pick up an interesting chemical profile: large amounts of water with temperatures moderate enough to keep most of it liquid and an atmosphere containing high amounts of oxygen; and most of the land is green. A strange place worth investigating. When you get a little bit closer you discover a planet teaming with life. The two legged creature / formally known as man / he’s moved on he’s died out / he’s gone, he ran.“ Alexandra Waierstall und Dani Brown „And here we meet“
With an acute sense of musicality and the body’s materiality, Alexandra Waierstall creates a convincing world where new relationships arise between presence and absence, language, movement and space. “And here we meet” carries sounds and movements from her group piece “A CITY SEEKING ITS BODIES” (2015) moving forward sculpting and reshaping thoughts and movements for her recent work “(T)here And After” (2016).
