ANDREA HACKL Based in Amsterdam, I am an interdisciplinary artist, working as choreographer and dancer, teacher and as well visual artist / film maker. I cherish the alchemy between different disciplines, while the human body and its visceral poetry remain at the centre of my work. I create dance and multidisciplinary performances and produce short films. Throughout my career I’ve danced and toured internationally in the works of other makers and my own performative and visual work is being presented at festivals world wide; currently touring DREAMER – a poetic journey inspired by cycles and our innate connection to nature, traveling through an organism of live performance and film, in collaboration with the french saxophonist Antoine Viard. DREAMER has won the award for BEST INTERDISCIPLINARY LIVE PERFORMANCE at LensDans Festival Brussels 2023. I’ve been collaborating with different musicians and, while working with an established structure, love to use improvisation in my performances. My short films, eg.: BELE BELTZA, SILENT FRAGMENTS and LIGHT RISING have won various awards for BEST FILM and BEST PERFORMANCE / CHOREOGRAPHY. Visual work that I’ve produced has been featured in art magazines such a Clic.he and received Honorable Mentions.
INTERPLAY _ SURFING THE WAVE
INTERPLAY offers the space to playfully challenge and surprise ourselves. The training combines somatic work, guided exploration of proposed principles and equally, set material; The training dives into and harvests the organic and fluid power of the body – using weight, momentum and breath. Finding our power in organic pathways, a natural interplay of forces and the fluidity of the body.
We move beyond the conventional ‘division’ of floor and standing material and rather move along pathways traveling through the body, the ground and space; from internal and subtle – almost on a cellular level – to big and expansive movement flying through space, as if surfing one ongoing and energetic wave.
