PERFORMANCE

The body
within the system.

Contemporary dance and embodied research extend Kazemi’s visual practice into time, weight, repetition and relation.

Movement becomes both material and memory: a way to investigate vulnerability, resistance and the changing boundary between a body and its environment.

Concept, sound, interactive system and audiovisual design

Mother is an interactive dance work exploring the body, technological mediation and distributed artistic agency.

Live movement enters an audiovisual system shaped by sound, pre-recorded media, radio broadcasts and computational intervention. Technology is not treated as a passive tool; it changes timing, attention and the conditions of performance.

Developed in Rena, Norway.
