Survival-Length, 2023
Created and Performed by studio lang (Allison Lang & Emma Lang)
20’ Performance
48 Stunden Neukölln. 23. June, 2023.
| In a vast night, a strangers kind, hooded eyes suggest there is still a porousness to exploit. Suspended in that impersonal night a memory of three beating hearts in a single body governed by a secret never given a name.
I tried to tell another story but the sentiment was wont to persist in an attempt to edge closer to a soft spot on the otherwise unforgiving material.
Survival-Length is a performance piece and an abstracted mental playground of the multiplicities and thresholds within the minds of twins, Allison and Emma Lang. Childhood play is mechanized by the artist duo to become superimposed onto the now, allowing the artists to playfully address the thesis of the piece: How do we cope with the plurality of an instant?
The artists contort themselves in a game of wild abstractions through contemporary dance movement, ecological metaphor, the swell of breath and voice to work as a team to open themselves up to real time negotiations between one another within the structural lanscape of the work.
