ARTISTIC PROJECTS. 2003-2023
Curiosity about life in all its aspects, I think, is still the secret of great creative people.
Sphere of interest is in visual art, and integration of visual art, choreography, sculpture and video.

Sculpture
Dance in dynamic statics
Sculpture is a logical continuation of the dance, the opportunity to give it existence in another time and dimension. In my concept of working with a static form, the kinetic component is important, giving a feeling of variability and relation to the current moment

Video
Dance on the plane: video, movie, documentation
The video reveals the possibilities of dance that are not available in live performance or sculpture. Projection onto a plane or several planes, focus on details, compositional moves and features of drama fundamentally distinguish video from action on stage. Although very often it complements perfectly.

<at>BODY<dot>MOVE
series of multimedia dance performances
One of formulas that I work with today is the formula, which serve as the base of a series of works <at> BODY <dot> MOVE.
Briefly it can be described as follows:
< Unit of information → impulse → movement → unit of information >
In an era when the digital environment had begun to shift from a tool into an immersive habitat, the project reconsidered the conventions of choreography. The body appeared as an autonomous author and processor—a biological node within a distributed network of information flows.

Theatre performances and actions
A theatre performance is an action on many levels, a whole complex of ideas united by one main line. This is its fundamental difference from a performance (action) - a conceptual staging, where a single line is viewed from different angles and does not need to be intertwined with others.

Performances, actions, video 2004-2008
This video is compiled from excerpts from several choreographic and video works, actions from 2004 to 2008. "Philosophy of Walls", "Phases of the Moon", "Mask for body", "Cage for air", "Bacchanalia in the Garden of Stones", "21st Floor". The video is mirrored in such a way that the excerpts united as a single whole, combining a period of work of several years. Concept, choreography, video - Konstantin Grouss
