“You search for yourself where the mirror says that you are.
“Here you are, that’s where you are”, says the mirror. You
Look for yourself and just find the emptiness in that place,
A black hole. You try to see, can’t see, get lost. The mirrors
Play with you. You go back to see yourself, then change place,
loose youself. You loose all your identity, you doubt about
where you are, who you are...”
Foucoult’s Pendulum - Umberto Eco


The choreographic search in the performance Mirror of Candaş Baş is based on minimal and repetitive movement. Time being always a loop, our life is repeating the same ordinary routine, where change becomes an illusion. The movements in space, also caught in a loop, try to break themselves free.
