Sasha Ivanochko

blackandblue dance projects Artistic Director/Choreographer Sasha Ivanochko presents her newest work, The future memory heartbreak junction. A solo for herself, by herself, the piece looks at the inner workings of human dilemma- stuck at the crossroads of seductive past and an unconvincing future, what the hell is a girl to do?

Playing extremes of inertia and bravado, this piece is body centric, and unfolds in a text of movement. Through an exploration of stasis, repetition and momentum, Ivanochko creates a physical language that is essentially abstract, mysterious, and yet pregnant with logic and meaning. Working from the notion that the body in thoughtful and articulate motion has metaphoric significance, the solo performer becomes a microcosm of the larger human spectrum.

A candid and explosive performer, this solo reveals the artist in the full bloom of her career.

Alone in the black and light filled dance space, Ivanochko intimately invites the audience to follow her along. At times surreal, absurd and strangely beautiful, the piece is ultimately about choice, freedom and feminine strength.
