»lossy« is about an inability to take it all with us. these are the bodies that were left behind, held in a state of recovery. it is at once real and science fiction, digital and embodied. this liminal space holds a confrontation with the promise of future, and ever-present absences. »lossy« is a warped ritual of transcendence. it is a carefree conjuring of a shiny new future »us«, and a collective grieving for what the future may no longer hold, once we finally arrive.

Led by artistic co-directors Lisa Mariko Gelley and Josh Martin, Company 605 from Canada is an ongoing exchange between separate people, bodies and ideas. Producing various dance projects and performances through shared creative process, the artists place emphasis on rigorous choreographic propositions and movement exploration—juxtaposing raw with precision, and highlighting effort, risk and interconnection.
