A lonely naked man is fast asleep, surrounded by the sounds of his dreams. The protagonist wakes up in an unfamiliar area, there is no one around. The Voice appeals to him, it's a mother's voice, which accompanies him and brings him to conversation. When the man is ready to answer, the Voice breaks off. The dance sets in.

Liminality is inspired by reimagining what Odette may have experienced upon plunging to her death in the lake from the classical ballet Swan Lake. It is a moment of suspended reality and a story of disenchantment, self-discovery and transformation.

Folds of the Wind

A transformative journey expressing the process of navigating emotions mirrored in the forming and reshaping of white desert clusters.

Arrawraw is a dreamlike piece in which dance takes us to a familiar and yet magical place – a journey to the origins of each one of us, to the common origin of all – the beginning.

Inexistent Word

A naked man is fast asleep, surrounded by the sounds of his dreams. He wakes up alone in an unfamiliar area, hearing a mother's Voice drawing him in; but as soon as he is ready to answer, the Voice is silent.

At the end of a dying world, two scavengers are running out of options. When they find a way out, one doesn't hesitate to take what she can. But when faced with her victim, she has to decide if her survival is what’s most important.

The World, 2020. The body isolated, the mind in contact. How many flaws and powers inhabit the cloistered human being?

This work portrays the chaos, selfishness, and cultural differences between people who cannot recognize emergencies as emergencies due to the blunt confusion of non-daily life.
