Dancer Simon Bus is fascinated by portraits. A share of his work consists of motion portraits of which Self-portrait, Man on Orange Floor (2019) and Portrait, Balder on Blue Floor (2023) are a part. The starting point of Simon’s work is the discomfort of daily life. The game between having and losing control is a returning subject. Sharp, brutal, and humoristic. Simon works with dancers with similar movements, often from hip hop. He extends the ideas about breakdance with his exploratory gaze and flexible body. Simon Bus is one the choreographers of Corpo Máquina and performs in Bolistas.
Portrait, Man on Orange Floor
Self-portrait, Man on Orange Floor is a solo performance in which Simon Bus dances a self-portrait. He portraits himself at a framed floor of 2x2 via poses and movements that hover between his ideal self-image and a caricature.
