Soulty
50 min.
In Soulty the face is a mask, the voice is sound and body movements are decorative shapes. The performers do not express their selves through the movement but separate their selves from it. They disconnect from facial expressions, movement and voice which usually act as mediators for inner feelings. The voice, the face and the shape of movement do not seek authenticity or manifestation of the individual but emerge out of the body as sculptural elements, costumes through which new figures are composed. Thus, they act as a medium that suddenly channels the voice of the soul, the one that is not confined to an individual but connected to the zeitgeist.
