| Body Corp by Sarah Aiken | |||
Sarah Aiken makes dance that warps perspective. From ecstatic astrological experiences with Deep Soulful Sweats to the national tour of Make Your Life Count, her work illuminates the body's relationship to the world, and how we see ourselves within it. Body Corp is a choreographic collage that blurs the boundaries of bodies - creating mythic figures, complex with our connection to nature and technology. Patch-worked, multi-form choreographies evoke the unreal, travel in time, transfigure self and reality. Dancers merge with machines to become hybrid creatures and monstrous assemblages: augmented, impossible, expansive and porous. An assembled choreography infused with magic realism, this innovative dance work muddies the divide between the human and non-human ‑ asking what inhibits our ability to connect with, empathise with and learn from the non-human world. Presented by Darebin Arts Speakeasy, Body Corp is a unique and artistically curated dance that shows a strong perspective of the merge of human and electronics.

The script is based on a true story, although this dramatisation can feel somewhat contrived, with important assertions not interrogated, and credibility stretched as a result.
