Projects
DANCÆ
Ballet Sur_real's debut performance on August 4th and 5th 2023.
For our performance at Studio Apelbaum, we created a choreography incorporating the light installation "Cognitive Painting," an installation piece conceptualized by Johnathan Apelbaum and his team. The choreography was gestated such that dancers could interact with the 3D light installation, and at the same time, lighting changes in the paintings reacted to the notes and tempo of the techno music. In this way, we were able to create a visually mesmerizing and immersive performance experience.
Labyrinth #5: Melancholia
Performance at Musikbraurei on the 12th of November, 2023.
1781 Collective, an international collective of musicians and interdisciplinary artists, invited us to perform at their artistically immersive event at Musikbrauerei. For this performance, we choreographed a piece with the two male dancers of our collective to showcase neo-classical ballet using the music mixed by our resident DJ, David Talzin. While keeping the melancholy theme of the event, the piece began with an ambient track from Polygonia that allowed audiences to interact with the dancers.
The Code Berlin X Ballet Sur_real
Performance at The Code Berlin Pop -Up Event on the 26th of January, 2024
