“Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker’s solo to music by Steve Reich (Violin Phase) was one of her first pieces as a choreographer. This wild dance matches the music’s twists and turns and its sequence of infinitesimal shifts. The trajectory of the dance, filmed from a high angle, can be seen in white sand on a black floor: its course is made visible, drawn like a mandala in the form of a rosace. ” -Charleroi Danse, 2010
For the “From The Inside…performance, screen and the gallery space exhibition” (Rugby Art Gallery and Museum 2010) this work was projected onto sand on the floor.
