In music, etudes are exercise compositions: Pieces used to develop techniques. They form the basis for unusual approaches to an instrument and broaden the horizons of artistry. In an atmospheric expedition, five dancers study their bodies as instruments and get to the bottom of the process of study itself. With great sensitivity, they examine the dedication and effort involved in practicing and repeating before new paths can open up. Piece by piece, the dancers transform their movement sequences and the space. The everyday practice of practicing and moving on, of routine and innovation, thus becomes a poetic metaphor for the meaning and purpose to which we dedicate the journey of our lives.
