Caṅkramati (Into the Macrocosm)

EVENT DESCRIPTION

Caṅkramati, journeying from the previous chapter Into the Microcosm to the grand finale Into the Macrocosm, embarks on an odyssey that awakens the senses and the soul, guiding us back to a state of inner tranquillity and self-reflection.

The stage transforms into an ephemeral realm, where visual projections conjure cosmic imagery. Accompanied by live performances of the singing bowl and the timeless melodies of Bach on flute and cello, the immersive soundscape resonates with the universe’s primal frequencies.

As the dancers are drawn by the gravitational pull of the planets, their rapid movements gradually slow, allowing their weightless bodies to trace intricate, overlapping trajectories. Audiences are enveloped in the vastness of space, envisioning themselves on the tranquil shores of the Moon, engaging in a silent dialogue with the cosmos.
