'RESET' - West Australian Ballet

"Platinum opened spectacularly with the world premiere of Cardim’s Reset, inspired by composer Gabriel Prokofiev’s composition – a fusion of classical and electronic music – and Matej Preunicic’s exciting soundscape. Reset is a mainly abstract look at human interaction in this modern frenetic life, which was established from the start by five women and five men who strode onto the stage and criss-crossed it, as if oblivious of each other (...) Cardim’s lucid and uncluttered choreography was thrilling; her improvisations not just echoes of work already played out, and able to completely absorb the audience"

"Taking a more classical approach, Daniela Cardim’s Imminent has a strong focus on the environment and specifically global warming and the uncertainty of what the future holds. There is a real delicacy about the choreography that makes it easy to engage with and react to – through every movement the dancers all give a real sense of urgency and fear about the situation, while Peter Teigan’s lighting design enhances that feeling of drama and tension perfectly towards the end.“ - Emma Clarendon, Love London Love Culture, Nov 2021
