Ellipsis

Notes de programme
Ce texte n’est pas disponible en français.

Composed for dance, with choreography by Heather Rutland, the Atle refers to Derrida’s use of the term ellipsis to indicate more than a simple omission, but a deferral of meaning. For Derrida, it is the space between presence and absence, simultaneously both ‘minus one’ and ‘more than one’, where meaning is not fixed but always in process.
