Changes (AA)of Weather - hysterical not historical thing, variability in the monotony, lack of land, the ground of current amplitude. Descriptions of weather phenomena that don’t have strictly periodic nature. Fluctuations in average values during the period. Temperature of armpit, pressure of knee, humidity of breath, sunshine of heel, the amount of rainfall - elusive and variable rates. “Changes (AA)of Weather” causes hysteria that causes unjustified fears about the functioning of the parts of your body.

The phenomenon of Anna Piotrowska’s creativity is closely linked to the attitude she represents towards art of contemporary dance. This is not only the effects of the whole wide range of contemporary dance, above all because it is going beyond the known and developed methods of working with the material of dance. On the one hand, as viewers, we are plunged into a constant and organic world, on the other, we open ourselves to new experiences. These new experiences are the result of an unconventional approach not only to the structure of matter of movement but also to the dancers. A good relationship, which Piotrowska builds and suggests between her and her dancers are accompanied from the very first meetings. At the same time, however, confidence appears and students trust her then, what allow them learn from her. The result is that rehearsals become an extremely intimate, there is the same time for practice, as for conversations. There is the same number of movement commands, as written. The subject is studied deeper, still explored. Thus the final effect, that choreography is a unique record of experience of road of risk. The viewer becomes witness not only of the performance but a huge, gained by the all participants of performance, experience. It affects in the unique way on results of working. The original movement and the intangible atmosphere of secrecy takes the viewer to the land of empathy, in which no brain, but senses dictate conditions of experience. To be Subjected to it, is namely to watch and see, watch and laugh, watch and cry, and finally watch and feel with body a tension of Piotrowska’s performances.
