Poetries Entangled
We are pleased to present our newly planned project, which will culminate with a premiere in September 2025.
Poetries Entangled (working title) is a dance-theater performance for theater spaces with video projection and live music support.
In 2025, we invite an international team of established artists to a creative meeting. Our basic interpretive quartet remains the only cast of this performance. Based on observing our creative tendencies that penetrate into the sphere of theater and film, we want to conceptually and artistically support our visions with other media. Essential for the project is therefore the enrichment of dance and concentration on dramaturgical and directorial guidance, with the aim of creating a harmonious fusion of multi-genre performative components into a comprehensive, primarily dance, opus with clear dramaturgy and original handwriting.
Under the choreographic leadership of Kristýna Peldová, we create dance-theater images. In the first part of the process, we meet with composer Kristijan Krajnčan and visual artist and film director Enya Belak. In the second half of creation, theater director and dramaturg Aljoša Lovric Krapež enters the process.
About the theme
The strongly visual performance explores essences and shades of femininity regardless of developmental phases and historical period. Through narrative and aesthetics of magical realism, it points to their cyclicality. With the idea of disrupting the linear concept of events, it points to the timelessness of female instinctual experiences and their physical manifestation.
It depicts interactions with chaos and individual coping with it. It points to experiencing confusion over ignorance of how life energy can be used in the context of one’s being, which causes (self) destructive, inherited patterns of toxic behavior.
Against the background of intimate sharing of one’s own fears, it depicts the desire for utopian inner peace. For nothing - quiet and divine. It makes present the spirit of pagan rituals within us, points to timeless archetypes, demonstrates the effort to connect with the spiritual and joy from transcendental experiences of being.
