Title: Kinetic Illustration of the “Rite of Spring”
My current choreography is a musical study on Igor Stravinsky´s “Rite of Spring” (second part). I have always craved to approach this Art work and kinetically attribute its radical music. I intend to visualize the music, using as images the moving bodies in space. The movement research is being made under the following thoughts/questions:
How can the body represent the musical instrument or/and illustrate this musical piece succeeding the best possible accuracy?
My name is Lida Doumouliaka and I am from Greece. I am choreographer, dancer and musician. My artistic interest focuses on the combination of my music compositions together with creative dance material. Inspired by cultural elements and social matters, I aim to display on stage different atmospheres narrated by the coexistence of dance and music. After I graduated from the Greek National School of Dance in 2016, I performed for Hellenic Dance Company and have been working as a dancer and freelance choreographer ever since. Currently I am attending the MA Degree in Dance, Choreography in Zürich University of the Arts, where I crave to make my artistic profile even more concrete and experience the journey to the international dance scene.
