Opening a two-week run at Yerba Buena Center for the Arts, LINES staged the premiere of its latest evening-length work, “The Propelled Heart,” where heaven and hell are evident right from the opening scene. Much of the program’s first half, in fact, leads us with exquisite dancing and poetic indirection into an awareness of both physical beauty and spiritual anguish. But this gets ruptured the moment the struggle is made literal. The work begins with four dancers sitting in a cone of warm light and fog, heads bowed. Together they crook their arms, collapse and reorient themselves. One by one, each rises to perform a solo that serves to narrate an inner state. One dancer moves frenetically, with desperation. Another propels her arms like a machine. A third pulls invisible material from her mouth. A fourth cuts the air with her legs.
