I called my world Earth,
but I thought it should actually be called Water.
- Maja Lunde
The mixed-ability dance piece Yaku Samay takes the essence of water as a metaphor to artistically explore the connection between humans and nature. The diversity of the element's qualities and intensity is reflected in the dancers' movements and sounds, transforming them into deeply human forms of expression.
As the origin of life, water symbolizes a universal, reliable constant – the sound of waves, the flow of rivers, the cyclical nature of water in a dramaturgy of a permanent cycle in and around the Earth.
Six dancers and a movement choir immerse themselves in the facets of water and, from the perspective of their experiences, create a sensual experience in which the boundaries between body, sound and water dissolve.
