”When you look at the dark for a long time, it starts to reveal contours.”
The performance is a man’s inner journey, a confrontation with his deepest darkness. It’s an encounter with a force that draws you in, making it very difficult, sometimes even impossible, to break free. At times, this darkness becomes so overwhelming that it turns into a desire to simply not exist. However, if you dare to face it, the darkness can become recognizable. Then, the outlines of concrete feelings and emotions emerge, allowing them to be named, accepted, released, or simply allowed to be. While the darkness may not disappear, you can always find something to help you endure it, to survive, to move forward, and to balance it with light. That something is your own body— your beautiful body that can dance. Ultimately, the desire to live is driven by the desire to act.
