Plesna predstava Stanje br. 2 nastala je iz koreografskog prakticiranja promjenljivosti i nesigurnosti slike tijela u transformaciji, njegovog živog prolaska kroz specifično fokusirani spektar izraza, mišljenja (vlastitog) tijela u plesu kroz poimanje njegove neodređenosti tj. njegove stalne otvorenosti za neko drugdje i drugačije od onog koje jest u datom trenutku. Naboj kojeg podrazumijeva ta neodređenost neodvojiv je od tijela, on se podudara s njime i to u mjeri u kojoj je tijelo uvijek u prolasku ili u procesu (u mjeri u kojoj je ono dinamično i živo).
Aluzija na drugo stanje prisutna u naslovu ovog rada proizlazi iz interesa za transformativnu snagu koju proces trudnoće, doslovno i metaforički, donosi ženskom tijelu, odnosno, interesa za koreografiju koja se na apstraktnijoj razini bavi uvjetovanostima koje izbacuju tijelo muškog plesača – izvođača u neko drugo ?drugo stanje?, trenucima u kojima tijelo postaje bremenito samo sobom.

Gravidation is a result of the choreographic praxis of variableness and uncertainty of image of the body in transformation, its live passage through a specifically focused spectrum of expression, thought of (own) body in dance through the notion of its indeterminateness, that is, its constant openness to an other and different from what it is in the moment. A charge resulting from that indeterminateness is inseparable from the body, it coincides with it in the sense that the body is always in transition or in process (being dynamic and alive).
The allusion to being gravid in the title of this work correlates to the interest in the transformative power that the process of pregnancy, literally and metaphorically, implies for a woman’s body; an interest for a choreography that, on an abstract level, deals with the constraints that expel the body of a male dancer-performer into a “laden state”, the moments when the body becomes ponderous of itself.
