 FURTHER INFORMATION

“a thing”

Based on her personal journey, young dancer Ekin Tunçeli takes an issue, “a thing” from her generation and the big family of humanity to the stage via her body. There is a genderless body on the stage accompanied by objects destined to vanish; the only reality that doesn’t vanish is the body that stands before us. A body that wanders among feelings such as uncertainty, a state of tentativeness, things that need to be and wished to be done, crisis, indecision and despair. The audience will face the questions that the body bears. She was distinguished by Aerowaves among 20 encouraging young artists and works in Europe; the stage is actually the mind of the dancer full of “I wonder if”s.

kitty kitty

A two-person experimental dance (performance) piece that suggests a motional and performative narrative style instead of concerning itself with telling a story. It insists on this style as a mode of the creation; letting the story form around the style almost by itself and sometimes even taking shape coincidentally... kitty kitty allows the audience to take a break from the daily grind and invites them to participate in the sincere and amusing atmosphere created by the dancers.
