About

Fragmentos was an interactive dance project selected for the "One-Day Stand", an ongoing performance event series designed to keep the scene active and responsive between longer-term projects like Sidewalk and the annual festival by The Other Side — a performance art platform based in Vantaa, Finland — in collaboration with Catalysti Transcultural Artists' Association.

My piece was a meditation on the dichotomy of the fragility and power of human interactions. It was a dance on social connection but also on the emptiness that comes after meeting others — and how in the emptiness one can feel whole.

The piece utilized flowers as symbols of the pieces we give to others, and the pieces that we keep for ourselves. A bucket with a little water was used to symbolise the importance of nurturing relationships — personal and collective ones.

No music or technical support was used in this piece.
