As mesmerized as humans are with the possibilities of outer space exploration, we often seem to avoid examining the space and environment directly around our bodies. Dancers serve as our earthbound pioneers. Diavolo — whose tag is “Architecture in Motion” — offers a unique exploratory adventure for dancers and audiences alike, employing unique props as inspiration and motivation for choreography. TITAS presents Diavolo’s Fluid Infinities 8 p.m. Friday and Saturday at Dallas City Performance Hall, 2520 Flora St. While “there is no narrative,” according to artistic director Jacques Helm, Fluid Infinities dancers perform on and around a dome structure — and its reflection — to explore themes of space, future and, naturally, movement. A times the dome resembles the moon, a hive, an intergalactic vehicle and the brain. There may be no narrative here, but the physical and visual cues are a mental and emotional workout. And that’s nothing new for Diavolo. Fluid Infinities is the final piece of the trilogy L’Espace du Temps, which previously examined identity, chaos, deconstruction, reconstruction and more. Perhaps we can explore our own domes through dance with a looksee at Diavolo’s. Tickets are $55-$75. Visit attpac.org.
