LUCE -5°C

Vienna meets...

living metaphors, light as a universal symbol, dance art as a spiritual practice in a dialogue between contemporary dance artists with the challenge of ´heating the exterior spaces from the interior of the moving body at -5°C´ in the Votive Church in Vienna, which was felt to be quite successful by the participating audience. The pastor Dr. Faruggia expressed his experiences as follows:

"The dance artists melted the icy cold. The marble stone dampened, a veil of warmth enclosed the altar island, and spread a happy mood among those present and in the whole space of the church."
