LABOUR presents sungazing (رضایت) at HAU Hebbel am Ufer, sneak peak from last weekend ✨ This is the second iteration of sungazing that began at Kraftwerk Berlin in November within the X100 Festival. This new work shares conceptual ideals to the first iteration, and now notably features the two dancers Cassie Augusta Jørgensen and Daniil Simkin, the video work and visuals of Evelyn Bencivcova, Enes Güç, Zeynep Schilling, light design by MFO, costuming by Marcelo Alcaide and Johnny McMillan as movement consultant. In this interwoven relationship, the elements shift from temporally aligned to temporally disjunct, transforming HAU2 into a multi-sensory experiential space. While finding inspiration in Zoroastrianism, an Iranian religion thousands of years old, and its rituals revolving around fire and the sun. “sungazing” dives further into the possibilities within club culture’s hedonism to political action and civil disobedience.
