Hovering between

The daring dances of Jason Martin and Naomi Gwynn respond to the magnetic movements of Yasushi Kurotaki (Japan) and Ji Jie (Hong Kong) to explore the multifaceted relationships, dualities, and aspirations that run through them.

Moonrise by Yasushi Kurotaki

Yasushi Kurotaki presents a solo piece inspired by the Japanese myth of Obasute, which explores themes of aging, memory, human connections, and abandonment. By exploring the fragile boundary between compassion and violence, tenderness and impossibility, the piece examines what the body can still express when words fall short.

Recursion by Ji Jie

Recursion explores intimate relationships as a power game in which the logic of “winning or losing” shapes our bonds. In this duet, Hong Kong-based artist Ji Jie transforms her own childhood traumas into powerful, repetitive choreography.

LADY by Naomi Gwynn

LADY explores, with humor and lucidity, the contradictions associated with femininity and the transition to adulthood. Through a series of short scenes blending movement, fragments of dialogue, and tragicomedy (inspired by Samuel Beckett), the piece addresses the exhaustion, joy, and absurdity of imposed female roles.
