In a poetic composition of dance, music, verbal language and text, the YIN-YANG performance delves into different perspectives of human and social imbalances. The piece uses the contrast between black and white to express the experiences of individuals and the world. The choreography embodies the struggle between the individual and society and shows the dynamics of power in the search for balance in life. The piece challenges the audience to confront our uncomfortable realities and to explore new possibilities and new directions.
The choreography illuminates the different levels of the performers’ relationship to global imbalances, or in other words: the individual confronts their complex realities in relation to the world.
