CONTR (A / O) VERS (E / U) S

“Woven into the fabric of human nature is our endless pursuit of certainty. In search for understanding, we pack ourselves into neat little boxes, each with a label to guide us towards what we come to understand as our ‘true self’. Humans find comfort in structure, yet structure confines and imprisons. It fails to capture the complexity of the human spirit, which blossoms in intricate colours as we let go of the blinding limitations we place upon this world. Led by their insatiable curiosity about the human perception of the world, dancer/performer Lore Borremans and composer Adam Vincent Clarke embark on their own quest for freedom. Their piece ‘contr (a/o) vers (e/u) s’ is an intimate bodily and audiovisual meditation on human nature, a delicate yet blunt dance on the borderlines of identity. In their radical symphony of movement and sound, Lore and Adam delve beyond the façade of singular labels to show that what lurks underneath is more than meets the eye.”
