“Le pas Jaques” is the name for the method used in teaching rhythmics, created by Swiss pedagogue Jaques Dalcroze and these are simply the steps performed to the music. The movement and the rhythm were the very first metaphors of the passing time and at the same time the starting point of my work. The solo was created - from an illusion of time being faster than ever, sadness because of the fact that all human affairs are immersed in entropy, things that seem to be alright only for a short moment of certainty, events which couldn’t be predicted and consequences coming of them. Colourful trash, second-hand news, expressways, marshal’s grin, all that may just be seen in the photograph some day.
