Lena Schattenberg: The Many Piece

The Many Piece is a piece of the many. by many. with many. for many. In The Many Piece, choreographies are imagined as materials that can be combined, fragmented, reassembled, interwoven and can lean against one another. Lena Schattenberg asked numerous choreographers to send her scores in any format. In a direct and playful dialogue with light and sound, a landscape emerges that unites people and materials, opening up a space for a body that communicates, (dis)places itself, lingers and negotiates. The Many Piece is a dance that requires Lena Schattenberg to follow her desire, moment for moment, remembering the past whilst also imaging an exciting future; collapsing histories and breathing new life into gifted movements.
