THIS PERFORMANCE IS PART OF A DOUBLE BILL WITH THE PERFORMANCE LIMP.
Meiti is a solo performance in which dance and visual art come together to represent the internal process. The internal process of losing trust in your body. What happens when you feel your body lets you down? How do you respond to that? And how do you eventually find your inner strength again?
You are not your trauma; you have experienced trauma. You are not your symptoms; you have certain symptoms.
Immerse yourself in Gianine’s inner world, a space filled with white spots, reflections, thoughts and the power of the body.
Meiti: Mind, Embrace, Internal, Trigger, Intuition
