This Resting, patience is a constantly evolving durational performance that explores the themes of attraction, repetition and emotion. Here, the body strips itself of tensions, roles and defenses, creating an archive of unexpressed sensuality. Throughout the three-hour performance, spectators are free to come and go. Where they find themselves in the space, how long they decide to partake, all contribute to shaping their perception of a performance that amounts to a collective experience. The two dancers, Ewa Dziarnowska and Leah Marojević, construct a flow of gestures which arise, disintegrate and withdraw. The dance becomes a social practice, a sensuality without any hierarchy, capable of suspending the conventions of the gaze by relating to the spectator. One of the most engaging performances of recent years
Ewa Dziarnowska is a dancer and choreographer based in Berlin, working across performance, collaboration and research. Her recent projects — This resting, patience, https:// 4677684728466.com and A Room With a Better View (Display Gallery x Berlin Art Week) — reflect her sustained inquiry into improvisation as both method and philosophy. Through attention to sensation, rhythm and relation, she investigates how movement can generate knowledge and resist the pressures of coherence and productivity. Her practice unfolds in real time, balancing precision and spontaneity while questioning the social and aesthetic frameworks through which dance is produced, witnessed and circulated. Her work has been shown at venues and festivals such as Sophiensaele / Berlin Art Week (DE), Schwere Reiter / International Dance Festival Munich (DE), 3hd Festival / Creamcake (DE), Tanzquartier Wien / Rakete Festival (AT), Santarcangelo Festival (IT), MDT / My Wild Flag (SE), Moving in November (FI), Mind Eater (NO), Bit Teatergarasjen (NO), What You See Festival (NL), FLAM (NL), Gessnerallee / Backslash (CH), Ephemera Festival (PL), Scena Tańca Studio / Teatr Studio (PL), ms1 / Muzeum Sztuki (PL). As a performer, most recently Ewa has worked with Alex Baczyński-Jenkins, Michele Rizzo, Ofelia Jarl Ortega and Enad Marouf.
