ITALIAN PREMIERE

Belgian drummer Lander Gyselinck accompanies Nafaq, the dance duo featuring Egyptian dancers Amina Abouelghar and Hanin Tarek. Together they present an improvised adaptation of the dance piece Extending Further, a groundbreaking and fascinating performance that combines different styles of hip-hop and contemporary dance, including choreography and improvisation. Immersed in an almost magical darkness, Nafaq envelops and merges with the space, intertwining in a precise and surprising reflection. Steeped in live sound that vibrates in the performers’ intimate embrace, Extending Further is a burst of creative energy that explores intimacy and distance in the space of human relationships through the contrast between the moving bodies of the dancers and the audience.
Nafaq is a dance collective that consists of Amina Abouelghar who currently resides in Brussels and Hanin Tarek, a dancer and choreographer based in Cairo. The duo has shown their work in festivals such as Festival de Marseille, Indiscipline festival by Wiels, and D-CAF. The duo have studied and graduated from the Cairo Contemporary Dance Center and have been collaborating with several artists and choreographers since 2019.
Lander Gyselinck is a Belgian drummer based in Brussels. His creative curiosity is a driving force in many of his different projects that have become established bands: STUFF., Lander & Adriaan, BeraadGeslagen, LABtrio, Hihats In Trees and others.
