Deep Dish is a stunning spectacle.
Four performers take their seats at a table set for a feast of Baroque opulence. As this bizarre dinner party unfolds we encounter the beauty and decadence of human existence, destined to perish.
Projecting live footage from a handheld camera onto a large screen, the performers uncover the surprising parallel worlds of the organic objects before them. Fruit and vegetables become landscapes of epic proportions, the body is transformed and nothing is as it first appeared.
Deep Dish is a collaboration between the multi award-winning Austrian choreographer Chris Haring and French visual artist Michel Blazy. Using lush imagery and evocative soundscapes they conjure an intoxicating garden of earthly delights; bound to decay, yet ripe with renewal.
Reviews
‘A perfectly staged mixture of dance and live-film… All in all, this is one of the best dance pieces to be seen in Austria this year.’
