If

1 x 1 Back in the House

The creation of “If” was made possible by the call from EinTanzHaus to freelance artists of the region to develop a short artistic statement to be presented live with the theme of “1×1”. The work was developed in two stages: the first inspiration came from the confinement of the lock down, a feeling of being stuck as well as the contradictory feeling of freedom thanks to all the time that was suddenly available. The second stage was a collaboration with Kasia Kadłubowska and a deeper research into the work. The statement was extended into a 10 minute performance where Kasia’s soundscape and Julie’s movement create an atmosphere of nostalgia, hope and sadness.
