There's something there about unpacking formalism during times of facism as an act of resistance. Is this anti-facist choreography?
- Rebecca Fitton: writer, advocate, administrator, artist

Time is the thread and crafted superbly. The divine shaping of pattern and repetition. The seriousness and particularity that is given to nuanced and strange vocabulary. - Tristan Koepke: choreographer, Big Boy Dance

Four performers draw on a shared archive of material from bodily memory and instinctual responses, blurring the legibility of their embodied histories and personal desires. The work acts as a dissonant chord - simultaneously pushing against and embracing traditional notions of formalism. Asking questions around how the performers meet the forms imposed on them and each other in these structures, ‘Corpus Corpus’ creates phantasms, ghosts, and traces of each other within the space they inhabit.
