Michael Turinsky - Precarious Moves

Details

Michael Turinsky lives and works as a choreographer, performer and theoretician in Vienna. He is interested in the body labelled as 'disabled', and its relationship to time and rhythm, gender and sexuality, visibility and invisibility. How does a body move when its surroundings are precarious and harmful? In Precarious Moves Michael Turinsky explores this question, looking at resistance and the body through movement, jigsaw building and cocktail mixing. The performance draws on Turinsky's personal needs of mobility, alongside the wider urgent need for mobilisation. Turinsky sensitively translates these limitations and boundaries to the audience, as well as finding opportunities to change the status quo.
