Current Works 

Come and Gone

Von Stockert’s new work Come and Gone is currently in the making. This multi-disciplinary project combines contemporary dance, film and visual art.

Come and Gone is inspired by the cycle of life, the ephemerality of memories and the inevitability of constant change,  as well as the locations this site-specific work brings alive. The work features an intergenerational group of performers and local participants in poignant play with one another and what they find on site, integrating architectural features, abandoned environments and materials.

Come and Gone is the last in a triptych of works that began with the outdoor piece, Belonging(s), and was followed by the stage work, Constructions of Thin Air. The three works differ greatly in form, content and concept, yet they share common ground: They are reflections on the ephemerality of our existence and environment, and the constantly shifting notion of home, family and identity as it evolves with age and circumstance. 

This creation is supported by the DRAC Pays de la Loire, the Département du Maine-et-Loire and the commune of Baugé-en-Anjou.

In the light of autumn

This audiovisual work is linked to Come and Gone as it features the same building in Baugé, Maine-et-Loire, France. Yet it presents the building from another angle as it focuses on the change of natural light that floods its rooms and captures those inside between September and December.
