The New York International Fringe Festival
FringeNYC, A Production of the Present Company

presents KUNSTWERK-BLEND interdisciplinary company

in STORIES IN D
a trio for movement, sound/text and light

traces of everyday life stories emerge only to disappear in warm South
European and Mediterranean atmospheres

in this collaboration, dance artist Sophia Lycouris, musician Viv Dogan
Corringham and filmmaker Michael Kosmides use sketches of movement,
sound and light to reconstruct 'fleeting glimpses of reality' against
shifting landscapes of open horizons, painted in marine colours and
augmented by summer evening sound textures and oriental melodic
fragments

a celebration of the live body in performance based on scripts of
original everyday conversations and inspired by the gay poetry of Greek
poet Konstantinos Cavafis

STORIES IN D is the first stage of a larger project celebrating the body
which also includes the performance/installation next2 and the
internet-based piece trans/forms
