For our next XYZeries, Pineapple Lab is excited to host the Philippine premiere of Manila-based Brazilian artist Eidglas Xavier's "Contagion."
Contagion is a piece that examines the distance between the body and it's self. Seeking to pull away from the structure of a performance play, Xavier explores the body and its needs - outside of narrative space or time, outside of a reliance on words or even symbols. Stripping everything else away, Contagion asks the question: what happens when the body of the performer seeks to perform nothing but the body?
Come watch this exploration into our concepts of distance, physical need, and the human body, as Eidglas opens his process up to the public; and help him develop her craft through Pineapple Lab's moderated talkback as we ask the audience for critical feedback on the piece!
WHEN: Saturday February 11 @ 8 pm
WHERE: Pineapple Lab, 6071 R. Palma Street, Brgy. Poblacion, Makati
TICKETS: Php 250, available through TicketWorld Manila [https://www.ticketworld.com.ph/] or at the door in cash.
