1: BLACK ASH
INTERDISCIPLINARY DANCE PERFORMANCE & DANCED RITUAL 2022
BLACK ASH is a raw fairy-tale, inspired by mythology, the figure of the Raven and the legend of La Loba; eternal wisdom keepers.
The performance speaks of our wild nature and instinct, our inner wisdom to let things die when they must.
It’s a rite of passage, a ritual, a journey of initiation that is as much yours as its mine.
It takes us to a world between worlds, where things have no name and life gets reborn.
“The Mystery of Life, of Death and….. LIFE again!
The eternity of Art that overcomes all kind of boundaries,
to embrace everything.”

2: DREAMER
FILM AND PERFORMANCE PROJECT 2022
Embracing and celebrating our connection with the earth and nature; inspired by the way in which all elements are intrinsically connected, DREAMER is a body of interconnected works. A special beauty of DREAMER lays within its depth and richness, the interplay and alchemy of its different elements and dimensions: performance – dance and music, short films, exposition
in collaboration with ANTOINE VIARD [Collectif COAX, Paris] – music / saxophone
PREMIERE at INEQUILIBRIO FESTIVAL 2022, hosted by Armunia Teatro

3: A MOUNTAIN PORTRAIT
FILM PROJECT / EXPERIMENTAL DOCUMENTARY IN COLLABORATION WITH ELISA POL 2022
This film is a collaboration and meeting point of the two performers, two women with a special relationship to the mountains. It is inspired by the meaning that this environment has and reflects about the lessons it can teach us.
It is a poetic testimony about time spent outdoors, with an, at times, humoristic note. A collage of personal stories overlapping with reflections and anecdotes of other female wanderers and mountaineers, such as Nan Shepherd (The Living Mountain) and Rebecca Solnit (Wanderlust).
A MOUNTAIN PORTRAIT premiered in frame of the interdisciplinary performance evening DREAMER at INEQUILIBRIO FESTIVAL 2022, hosted by Teatro Armunia, Castiglioncello (It)

DANCE FILM 2022
Esistenza x Gioia, is inspired by the primal and uniting power of water; the film celebrates our essence, the innate life force that’s within and connecting all of us, healing and transforming. It’s a celebration of existence and the joy to be alive.
“This sky
Where we live
Is no place to lose your wings
So love, love
Love.”

5: BELE BELTZA
MULTIPLE AWARD WINNING DANCE FILM 2021
“By presenting impressive outer landscapes and images of a strong physical presence, exposing the performer‘s body, Hackl‘s films take the spectators at the same time away into peculiar inner worlds. The high contrast black and white aesthetics, the precise editing and the sound are skilfully matches and create a convincing overall work of art. What is particularly striking about Andrea Hackl’s work is that she is producing the films almost completely by her own, being photographer and performer at the same time. She takes us of a journey of its own, using the camera as a witness, observer and mirror of human presence in the world.”
– Sarah Möller, Pool Dance Film Festival, Berlin
“Bele Beltza reflects a strong spirituality that fits with the black and white imagery. It gives a strong expression to a journey in the vastness of the mountains. This work should be best displayed in huge screen – and not ‘only’ as a film project but also as an installation. I wouldn’t change a single thing. The edit has an excellent rhythm and its duration was just as it should be.”
– Aliki Chiotaki, Dance Days Chania

8: SILENT FRAGMENTS
DANCE FILM + INSTALLATION 2018
emotional topography of the body
landscape of memories
becoming fluid
body ocean
liquid space
“Silent Fragments is a work of great expressiveness; created through an intimate and simultaneously intense dialogue with the camera, the result is a work that, on the one side, enhances the potential of video as a medium and, on the other side, gives back an enormous tactile presence through the dancer’s body, in an essential and intense choreography.”

9: DEPTH OF SHADOW
INSTALLATION PERFORMANCE 2018-2020
hybrid installation performance in which the performance designs the space and the space is the “playground” for the performer, a psychological metaphor for her journey
“Depth of Shadow is a technically and artistically successful and complete performance. The artist Andrea Hackl gives us a moment full of a silence that speaks, allows us to enter into her intimacy with this dancing silence. Intimacy that then becomes ours and we feel one with the performative moment. One also perceives improvisation, which makes the intention of the artist even stronger. This at times silent dialogue with the space is completed with the video projection that also captures the world of sensations.”
– Valentina Gelain, artist of black box genesis

10: WILD HORSE RUN
DANCE PERFORMANCE ABOUT COURAGE AND FREEDOM 2016
“The performance WILD HORSE RUN is both, wild & touching in its subtlety.
– Ines Pariente / TOIHAUS Salzburg
Andrea Hackl’s movements are flowing, soft and, equally, powerful.
The music – composed by Ivan Shopov – elevating and rich in its many layers. This second layer of the work supports her intense physicality and accentuates the gentle and soft moments. Her dance – a ritual. Her story – the journey of a powerful woman.”
“Strong, physical, sensitive … no words !”
– Atanas D. Maev, CEO of Derida Dance Company
