Début is not Mala Kline’s actual début. Rather it is the creation of a confident and unique artist, who, using a Lynchian atmosphere takes her viewers on a pathway between worlds and guides them through her work as if through a labyrinth of meanings. The piece begins with a diva complaining about work conditions and how she simply “cannot do it”, and flows into a dance solo that both physically and on an abstract level opens a new landscape on the stage, and ends, as they say in fairy tales, happily ever after. The live performance is accompanied by powerful sound and video images.
Début - In Memory of Coming was created by a team at numerous artistic residences (Girona, Lisbon, Berlin). It emerged under the auspices of the Mediterranean project entitled Sites of Imagination. Mala Kline is a performance artist and choreographer. Much of her professional knowledge and experience was acquired through her work with Wim Wandekeybus, Mark Tompkins, Meg Stuart, Josef Nadj… She has danced in pieces by Iztok Kovač and Wim Vandekeybus. She has co-choreographed work with Maja Delak. Her first big independent choreographic work Campo de’ Fiori was very successful. She is completing her studies in philosophy.
