Overdose is a piece from 2010 which shows the consumer society full of impact, tension, overloaded performance constraint. The characters try to break out of hurdles caused by themselves or caused by others. It was not the first and last time Eva was experimenting with props such as poles and sticks. She wanted to explore the topics of addiction and dependence, so the long black pipes vary between connecting and separating the dancers, between helping them or putting an obstacle in their way. The poles not only serve as practical tools as they build bridges between or hold apart the performers, but they also play a strong visual role in shaping geometrical structures, dividing the space into different plains or exaggerating the ranges of the movements. Through very accurately designed sequences we get to see some universal characters as they try to step out of the strict constraints of a system.
