Moirai is an exploration of the experience of time through an interdisciplinary practice rooted in improvisation at the intersection of dance and language.

Everyday language often reflects a conception of time based on a modernist vision of linear progress. In this perspective time is moving relentlessly forward, in a constant flow that can be measured. Moirai enquires into alternative kinds of time: circular time, cyclic time, asynchronous time, heterogenous time, parallel time, multiple time, mystic time. Those times are what medievalist Carolyn Dinshaw calls queer forms of temporalities and have the potential to open up to a possibly fuller, more complex, understanding of what we call past, present and future. Moirai’s point of departure is a dance score inspired by the mythical figures of the Three Fates (the Moirai in Greek mythology), who are said to be able to see all of time
