What training for what performance, what preparation for what struggle, what effort for what goal? Following on from BSTRD and A Kind of Fierce, Katerina Andreou continues her exploration of physical practices, again using the stage to question free will. She sees physical activity as an exercise in rigour and discipline that is also related to the desire to wrestle with the question of control and power.
Zeppelin Bend, named after the knot used to tie two ropes together and to moor airships, is a methodological quest: how can two people find a single body language based on massive effort and the states it can generate? Katerina Andreou and Natali Mandila establish links between dances, actions and sounds, engaging both a hard-core discipline and a psychedelic imagination. In a world where keeping one's feet on the ground or floating away are often considered to be means of survival, they will do both. While seeking moments of freedom, they attempt to anchor themselves in reality by concentrating on what their bodies are doing.
