For Mudam’s outdoor spaces\, the L ondon-based artist SERAFINE1369 has developed \;IV (for II) \; as an extension of the work \;IV \;(2023)\, conceive d both as a modular piece and as a dancing practice. A speaking clock that marks the passage of time\, a visceral sound scape and two performers wil l create a shared space\, inviting us to linger in a moment of suspension\ , and to return to ourselves.
As an artist\, dancer and body-focused researcher\, SERAFINE1369 foregrounds dance as an intimate technology: a means of sensing\, processing and relating. They focus on the revelatorypo tential of movement and the entangled relationship between time and space. Stillness meets the impossibility of being completely still\, allowing th e body to attune itself to the moment as it unfolds.
SERAFINE1369 wo rks in a site-responsive way\, creating the conditions for a choreographic situation to emerge\, in which the performers coexist\, informing and get ting informed by the flow of the performance. The artist works with the id ea that being a spectator means being a witness\, and therefore an active participant. The audience thus becomes an implicit contributor to the situ ation ofthe performance.
All inhabitants of this shared space are pr ompted to reflect on the nature of movement\, even when attempting to stan d still. \;IV (for II) \;encourages an awareness of the p assing of time and seeks a sense of grounding when in constant motion.

Biography: \;
SERAFINE136 9 \;is a London born artist\, dancer and body-focused researc her working with dancing as a philosophical undertaking\, or a political p roject with ethical psycho-spiritual ramifications for being-in-the-world\ ; dancing as intimate technology. They work with/in the context of the hos tile architectures of the metropolis towards moments and states of transce ndence. They understand working with bodies as working with vibration – sound\, light\, frequency. Their performances are containers\, frames that conjure weather and many voices through the interplay between dancing\, s ound\, objects\, words and light. They work with the non-linear passage of time\, cycles and choreography as an oracular system. Their methodology i s intuitive and many-headed and underpinned by their interest in the invis ible systems and structures that choreograph bodies in life. The political implications of this work encourage an un-settling\, anti-assimilationist practice concerned with the integrity and efficacy of structures (bodily and social)\, collaboration\, hosting and an interest in somatics\, semiot ics and symbiotics from a body-led\, experiential position.
