Etude
Etude is a work developed from observation, transcription, and translation processes that the artist has devised to explore pop and vernacular phenomena so as to render more clearly the subtle gestures, styles and attitudes that define the contemporary persona. It involves five performers, musicians and dancers (Bachzetsis included), in developing a vocabulary of movements and attitudes performed together and in isolation. Repetition of minute details of behavior is doubly deployed—as a learning tool (in rehearsal) and dramatic device. The performance attempts to make space for a study in motion, where performers and audience—each in their own roles—achieve a fuller sense of self.
