Ultimately everything - things, relationships, routines and human constructs are all illusions of our making. There Is nothing and yet there is everything.
Description
There are four parts to this work:
A Preparation
A Beginning
An Unfolding
and
An Awakening.
An honest conversation is created between music and mover through improvisation
Given the format of the work every performance is different.
The work urges the viewer to question what is the truth? Why do we hold onto an imagined truth often missing the bigger reality? Can we see beyond?
This work deeply resonates with the following statement made by the father of Butoh Kazuo Ohno
‘Art cant be taught. I believe that a piece of work comes out naturally from a human just like one human comes out of another. You must have life coming out of you (your art)’
