The Poetics of Hands Meeting

How many more hands will we hold? And what else will our hands meet in their lifetimes: morning coffees, saplings, photographs, threads? The Poetics of Hands Meeting is a tender dance duet, contemplating on our potential to craft, carry memory and connect through hands. Curated with a grounding soundscape of Gayageum, sensitive movement and tactile invitations for audiences, this is a moment to slow down, listen and reimagine how we touch, hold and tend to the world we live in. An "ambient dance", giving life-filled space amidst a busy world of overstimulation.
