This piece is an exploration of human imbalance — a journey through the contrasts that define our emotional and physical states. We walk on uncertain paths, constantly shifting, never settling. It is a search for the place where balance dissolves, and something raw is revealed. We move between extremes: from madness to serenity, from weeping to deep, unspoken sorrow, from power to utter fragility. These opposites do not cancel each other — they coexist, they clash, they dance.
This is not a narrative in the traditional sense. There is no resolution, no fixed structure. Instead, there is a continuous transformation — of bodies, of energies, of emotional landscapes. Instability becomes our language, our playground, our truth. In that zone — fragile, trembling, beautiful — we invite the audience to witness the stories that emerge. Not stories with beginnings and ends, but fragments, echoes, impulses. The body remembers what the mind forgets. The body trembles when words fail. We do not seek to explain, but to evoke. To allow the instability itself to speak.
