PRACTICE by bücking&kröger is a choreographic work about practicing. Two dancers explore techniques of repetition and practice and address questions of virtuosity and body techniques as coping strategies. How did certain movement techniques become inscribed in our bodies? How did we become what we are, how do our movement techniques, trained over decades, influence us and how do they determine our artistic practice? Florian Bücking and Raisa Kröger use physical exercises to search for perfection and for personal bodily resilience – while being aware of the permanent failure and the physical vulnerability that cannot simply be erased.
