Ola Maciejewska

BOMBYX MORI

Duration 60 min

Cascades of black fabric wave across the stage, forming short-lived whirls, wings, mythical creatures. In “BOMBYX MORI” Ola Maciejewska takes her inspiration from the in uential avant-gardist Loïe Fuller. She transforms the spectacular costume from the “Serpentine Dance,” in which Fuller draped an endlessly long width of material around her body, into a choreography for three dancers. In doing so the choreographer reveals the critical potential of dancing dresses: her dancers become hybrids of body and object, activity and passivity, human and non-human.
