FROST
RECOIL PERFORMANCE GROUP 2009
Winner of best dance performance 2010, Danish Performing Arts Awards, Reumert Awards
Frost is a story of movements which is developed and manipulated by the dancers themselves – moments of meeting compounded by sharply defined and organically vibrant graphics.
The performance is framed by a video scenography consisting of movement sensitive graphics. The combination of choreographic material and delicately “choreographed” video scenography is the core of this performance, where the warm intensity of the body contrasts with the frozen imprints it leaves behind.

The choreographer Tina Tapgaard fuses steps, music, light and computer graphics more originally imaginative and fascinating than we have seen until now.
