DESCRIPTION:

A dance duet that unfolds the profound connection between two dancers and choreographers, Anastasiia Kharchenko and Yekatierina Bysheva, with nature, music, and their emotional worlds.
The concept of the performance emerges from the understanding of being ready to express the experienced war through their bodies. Choosing the path of "rule-free" creativity, the dancers allowed themselves to experiment and evolve, creating the show backward. This process enabled them to construct their mysterious world.
"We began collecting senses that resonate with us and assembling them into a mosaic. Throughout the entire preparation period, we always kept in mind the phrase that 'there are no rules,' so we are staging the show backward. Constant changes are a core part of our process leading us to find the most relevant and accurate solution. This gives a sense of freedom, which is important".
"We draw great inspiration from nature and the diversity of the surrounding world, where polar things happen simultaneously. Also, from how life weaves its patterns."
