Exhaustion as a diagnosis of our time, isolation as the means of choice – with an ensemble of eight dancers, Margr\u00e9t Sara Gu\u00f0j\u00f3nsd\u00f3ttir enters the blind spot in Blind Spotting in the incessant noise of everyday life. In impressive and at the same time disturbing images, they expose the vulnerability of the fragile bodies of our achievement-oriented society and sharpen the eye for power in its supposed weakness.
Who does not know the feeling of exhaustion in everyday life in the big city, the desire to withdraw and close oneself off from the manifold impressions? Demarcation is the keyword of our time. We have learned to reduce our perception to a minimum – and yet there are events and moments that penetrate our consciousness as if from nowhere and touch us.
Poetic, disturbing and uncanny at the same time, the ensemble of eight dancers penetrates to this blind spot of our perception and invites us to jointly grasp the fragile self in our overloaded bodies. Unsettled by the almost boundless empathy with others, this self begins to observe its own gaze and explore its perception. In a dense atmosphere, filled with intimidating intimacy that is hard to escape, the performers, together with their audience, try to sharpen the awareness of the individual presence of the counterpart and to assert a different, vulnerable and fragile body: a body that discovers its own strength in its vulnerability and openness.<\/p>\n

There is also a slowness, seemingly born of an endless exhaustion; the infernal silence from which Peter Rehberg\u2019s music is created and of course the quality is produced by the Icelandic choreographer Margre\u0301t Sara Gudjo\u0301nsdo\u0301ttir\u2019s movement art, like a puppet hanging from a string\u201d.<\/p>\n Arnd Wesemann, tanz, 08\/2014<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cAgain and again we see exhausted bodies, retreating within themselves. There is hardly communication between the protagonists. Each one going their toilsome way. Everyone is exhausted.
