06. Compulsive Collection v.4: Edition Surface
→ Print / Editorial
A publication system reframing choreography as structural archive.
Ballet exists through ephemerality. Its value lives in motion rather than permanence.
For Béjart Ballet Lausanne, documentation traditionally records performance, not structure.
Surface reconsiders how choreography can be archived without reducing it to spectacle.

Surface reconsiders how choreography can be archived without reducing it to spectacle.
The posterior body sustains alignment yet remains visually secondary.

The body becomes a surface through which movement can be read, sequenced, and archived.
Repetition → Sequential page structure
Endurance → Dense visual pacing
Memory → Layered cropping
Anatomy → Surface abstraction
