SIN RED [no net] is an experimental, temporary, dance and movement research company. It was created by ruby onyinyechi amanze as part of a non-traditional exhibition invitation; to display a project/process/exploration rooted in the raw, the unfinished, the vulnerability of secret inquiries and the questions of making as opposed to a polished production. For the artist, who does not typically work in the medium of dance, the framework of the company is an essential part of the work.
In experimental and intuitive collaboration with co-choreographer and principal dancer, Tania Solomonoff, amanze investigated themes of breath, the body as a container from which things could be metaphysically removed or placed, the grace and power of olympic lifts and the ancient analogue instrument of hands clapping in collective form. Playing with the structures of task, and stillness, improvisation and score, a vocabulary was generated from this research and organized in sequence and play.
