ARTISTS
SERAFINE1369 is a dancer, artist, acupuncturist, facilitator and body-focused researcher working with dancing as a philosophical undertaking, a political project with ethical psycho-spiritual ramifications for being-in-the-world; dancing as intimate technology. They work with/in the context of the hostile architectures of the metropolis towards moments and states of transcendence and transmutation. Cycles, time and haunting are recurring themes in their work which they describe as being an oracular practice.
SERAFINE1369’s approach acknowledges the cosmic oneness of all things as manifested through ecologies of relation and the fact that everything is made of the same stuff. They are intensely curious about the magic and mysteries of life-processes of distinction, variation, cycles, decomposition; the inevitability of movement.
Their practice is concerned with the integrity and efficacy of structures (bodily and social), collaboration, hosting and an interest in somatics, semiotics and symbiotics from a body-led, experiential position. Their work prioritises listening and is responsive to the specificities of context.
