While We Wait
While We Wait is an ongoing construction of dance phrases and interventions, inspired by the everyday process of 'waiting'. Here waiting is not a passive passing of time, but an active choice to engage in an open space. It is an invitation to observe what ordinarily is left unseen, and a refusal to automatically walk in line. To wait is then not a loss of time, but a possibility to re-choreograph it in unforeseen ways.
