Palissimo performs Le Petit Mort
Choreographer Pavel Zustiak teams up with famed video artist Tal Yarden exposing postmortem ecstasy somewhere between a dream and a memory entitled Le Petit Mort. Raw, unsettling, emotionally charged images ask questions that are ultimately unanswerable - questions of the matters of the end. Scenes of disquieting stillness and agitation, haunting traces of life past living, will leave a residue that can't be washed off.
Performances December 7-10 at Performance Space 122: www.ps122.org/performances/palissimo.html
