Pawel Sakowicz: The Rumble Performance

Our main gallery exhibition by Polish artist Iza Tarasewicz  - open from 7 October to 29 January 2023 - is accompanied by a new movement-based work by Polish dancer and choreographer Pawel Sakowicz, realised in collaboration with Glasgow-based dancers.

The work was first performed in the gallery space at the exhibition preview: it will be performed again on the afternoons of Saturday 22 October and Saturday 5 November from 2pm to 2.45pm.

Responding to the forms and rhythms of the exhibition, the performance invokes  a contemporary language for Mazurka (a Polish folk dance) and its traditional cyclical revolutions; exploring acentric vocals and footwork that figuratively represent machines running out of control.

Performed by Aniela Piasecka, Hayleigh Smillie, and Daniel Navarro Lorenzo
Sound mix by Gediminas Rimeika
