Pièce for two dancers‚ a musician and a video projection‚ originally commissioned by the choreographic center WID - Welsh Independent Dance in 2006‚ Unattaching explores our personal experiences: the desire for something outside‚ the despair and freedom you feel when a relationship ends.
The two dancers investigate the dynamics of the relationship through complex interactions with their own personal space‚ whether on stage or in the video‚ through an abstract physicality and with electronic music performed live.
