Milka Djordjevich, Bob

Bob is a manic whirlwind of methodical rapid-fire movements, dictated, performed and self-enforced by Milka Djordjevich. Set to throbbing music composed by Djordjevich, Bob eroticizes the labor of the dancing body–the repetition, the discipline, and the fallout. A mid-career taxonomy of sorts, Djordjevich confronts demands to optimize her female body and the market’s expectation to enhance her performance over time. Bob is an alter ego trained to be so skilled as to become other–the perfect kinetic subject in the service of her audience. Algorithmic movement patterns conjure approaches from trance, folk ritual and rite–they become a means to no end. A reflection rivaling the self, Bob is on a rampage with and against self-consciousness in order to bask in reverie, delusion, desire and rage. Show no mercy! Bob premiered on July 11 &12, 2024 at the American Dance Festival in Durham, North Carolina. Choreography, Performance, and Music: Milka Djordjevich Lighting Design: Madeline Best Design Advisor: Shannon Scrofano Bob is commissioned by ADF with support from the Doris Duke/SHS Foundations Award for New Works.
