I Want to Talk with U und Going Below (Howool Baek, 12H Project Moonsuk Choi)

Ausschnitt

1. I Want to Talk with U
Sometimes we want to talk to someone truly. But many times the truth is turned away or ignored. That we cannot communicate truly makes us all being ignored. We wouldn´t be lonely if we could communicate in a sincere way…
Two dancers talk about relationship between someone who try to talk and someone who ignore, through delicate movement inside tiny square on the ground. Dancers talk by eye to eye, hand to hand, foot to foot.

2. Going Below
This piece focus on the psychological state of the person with amnesia, trying to transfer it to the body with the feeling of emotional reactivity degradation and loss, apathy, anxiety, restlessness, excitement, temporary embarrassment and repeated behavior(act). Dealing with the degeneration of perception towards reality and the human desire to recover it.
aims to analyze the tragic aspects of amnesia from a different and unique point of view. Providing an opportunity to think about it and open the discussion of what it appears to be one of the modern civilization disease.
