... And this weird sound from somewhere inside.
... The birds were silent on the rest of the afternoon ... I have never experienced such a strong silence.
... Some helplessness, no control, ease of injuries and lack of sense of safety.
... Fear, silence and peace.
…State of emergency
... reminds me about life.
"Porque si no hay pelea no va a amancer ..."
Zona Segura - a solo was achieved in the framework of artistic residence Solo Project 2009 in Poznan / Art Stations Foundation. Since its premiere in May 2009, "Zona Segura" was shown in Poznan, Warsaw, Bratislava (NU Dance Festival), Berlin (TanzTage) and Dresden. Collaboration with the light director, John Cybis, is a key part of this performance, where the harsh game between brightness and darkness play a major role in the experience of this performance, both for audiences and a dancer. Music, like in other Margaret’s performances, , is a powerful engine of the movement, energy and emotion. "Zona Segura” was once again inspired by the music of Andy Moor (The Ex), this time with a duet with DJ Rupture and Kaffe Matthews. Every time, Malgorzata takes new challenges on the stage, touching the unknown spheres "Zone ...", crossing new bordes, retaining the intensity and surprising herself and the viewer. It's an emotional solo, and constued by the audience as a very honest, minimalist, consistent, brave and moving.
Here is some of my friend’s description:
"Being alone in the space, where you invite in the beautiful and sincere way" For Margaret the most important drive of this performance is a state of emergency, which becomes a joyful motivation to live.

"(...) As part of that evening, Małgorzata Haduch is experienced a moment later, whose body is transformed into a terror machine acquirer. The machine that vibrates and pants in the undescribable way and seems to be not to stop. At the beginning Małgorzata was on the stage in black top and black gym shorts, and her arms were contacted, though otherwise it was not possible, as she wanted to hide. After a while, she opened up nimbly, flexibly straightening up and pulling the breast. She was it doing forth and back: two forces, which combat each other so hard, that there was no measure .(...)
