"The Icon reflecting the kingdom of-the-falling, remote and deserted, where everything is built on quicksand."
REMOTE EDENS portraits an un-modern, from times bygone, picture of love between a man and a woman. A relationship where mutual dependence rules over self-emancipation.
Concept: Ioana M. Popovici Choreography: I. M. Popovici in collaboration with the dancers Performed by: Anna Caunerova and Daniel Racek Stage design: Peter Smetacek Costume design: Julie Fox Light design: Vladimir Burian Produced by: Marketa Janouskova
From the press: "Following the group piece "Requiem For A Dog" and the solo "The Chair", Popovici now looks at a couple's relationship. As in her previous pieces, she does not go down any well-trodden paths but takes on the full complexity of the subject." "Ioana Mona Popovici has long since emerged from the shadow of fellow artists such as Charles Linehan and created something distinctive of her own: a creative cosmos that obeys its own laws rather than those of the market..." - Hartmut Regitz, BalletTanz magazine
"Remote Edens is a performance for theorising about theatre." - Vladimir Marsalek, Dance Zone
"The cover-up story of the relationship tells only "eternal" truths. But beyond the story is hidden an esoteric map of the choreography." "...The map is very austere, almost as an army map; no playful graphic design, no bright logos." - Nina Vangeli, Dance Zone
