In 1991 Sasha Pepeliaev started a long-term project called "Kinetic
Theater" which encompasses the following aspects: Theater of movement
and dynamism. Theater of space. Theater of body. A magnetic attraction
to dance and movement which does not shape the performance but allows
the sense of it to be exposed. A constant exploration of different
approaches to use verbal and visual streams of action. Improvisation.
Professional quality. Independence and autonomy of experiments in the
frame of conception of art as art.
"…Pepeliaev’s dance-patterns of jumps, waves, repeating gestures – do
not illustrate a fable… the space around him becomes like an entire
mouth and he himself a lively tongue, bending and fluttering in praise
of sound."
(A. Sokolyanskii, "Ogonyok")
