In 'Solo', the Cypriot dancer Maria Hassabi dances a pas de deux with a Persian carpet. She crawls over and under it, balances on it, lifts it up and throws it on the floor. She uses it as a weapon, a prayer mat, a garment and a lover, and thereby creates images that stay tingling on your retina. In this performance, which is halfway between dance, installation and performance art, the focus is on physicality. With her muscular body, Hassabi builds sculptures in various poses that merge one into the other. And all with an incredible precision and control. Maria Hassabi obtained a Bachelor degree in performance and choreography at the California Institute of the Arts (LA) and now lives in New York.
