Baby
Through the body in relation to space and the other, Baby is a work that bridges movement and performance. How do we inhabit a body in which the voice of the inside is sometimes too dominant? It is a work about dualism and its co-existence. We are focusing on this line of conflict. Baby is a struggle between our inner voice and the person that we are in the society we live in. The work focuses on violence. Violence is a word that dominates the media, video games, movies, and most importantly, our minds and the world.
To reclaim the need to walk freely, the two dancing bodies form a line of defense.
