Mmmh?!

part of Reso’s Tanzfaktor 2020
selected as one of aerowaves 40 winks 2020

The short piece Mmmh?! is looking for the physical expression of taste through the medium of dance: How does the body react to the spiciness of chewing a corn of pepper or big chunk of raw ginger? How do the dancers translate the juicy sourness of a lemon into their bodies? And what about the pleasant sweetness of caramel pudding?
In Mmmh?! the explosion of flavours are taking over the whole body, driving it into absurdity – giving the audience a different perspective on an everyday experience.
