WORKS

In the Process of… is a beautifully crafted duet in which a man and a woman negotiate a series of endings, rather than a single unfolding narrative leading to one inevitable finale. 

​

Looking at composition as process, Dimitriou attempts to bring together the highly rational with the irrational in a freely moving continuity and to weight the quality of the human body toward that of objects, words/language, sound and light. Manipulating movement parameters and playing with the central myth of the 'quest' underlying the basic archetypical themes, a play of two emerges as a series of short intermezzos to a story never told. 60 wooden hoops dramatically help and hinder the couple's relationship on stage - and even at times become the sole protagonists. 'In The Process of…' draws upon Conlon Nancarrow's compositional structures and studies into the effect of film figure movement and genre recognition.
