People like to keep certain distances between themselves and other people or things. And this invisible bubble of space that constitutes each persons territory is one of the key dimensions of modern society, writes the cultural researcher Edward Hall. Abstand by Luis Marrafa and Ant Cabrita is a compelling contemporary dance piece about each persons territory that constitutes the distance between people. What is the right distance between human beings or the correct measure separating two individuals? It can be millimeters, meters or even forever. It is manifested in a physical and emotional way. In the case of Abstand there is a distance between two men. Crossing their border will appear reactions, understandings and emotions. It is a paradoxical relationship where the body language is constantly shifting.
