EARTHLINGS / Tatiana Gousarova , Oleg Oucharov 2001
Tatiana´s und Oleg´s acrobatic act was just at the beginning
of creation when they explored the symbiosis of Acrobatics and Tango
for their solo piece.
The basic concept was to give the artists a maximum of freedom in their
work allowing them to exercise their complete repertoire of figures
and at the same time draw the attention away from the typical appearance
of a dance couple. The result are multifunctional characters who can
work with a variety of emotions without stereotypical preconceptions.
The earthlings were designed to be independent of the need of a specific
background color which extends the possibilities to perform on various
stages and events.
