Doris Uhlich - Habitat
As part of the Britney X Festival 2022, Tanz Köln invited Austrian choreographer Doris Uhlich to Cologne with her production Habitat.
Habitat is a utopia. A shameless, but also shame-free hymn to the naked body beyond cultural inscriptions and common ideals of beauty. The body is not degraded to a fetish, to an object, and carnality is not metaphorically or poetically ideologised, but understood materially and shown with all its mass and force, but also in its fragility.
Doris Uhlich describes her work as a search and research into collective energy, networking, connectedness and empathy. In Habitat, she searches for rituals in which bodies are celebrated and experienced as the epicentre of action and change.
