Based on a True Story


“Soft can still move fast, slow might be hard-edged, and small sometimes speaks loudly”

Site-Specific solo dance performance unfolds within a 2×2 meter space, where fragility, confinement, and resilience are revealed through four poetic scenes. Blurring vulnerability with urgency, the performance reflects on how we act—or fail to act—when confronted with sudden change or disaster. Only a small audience can experience it at once, making each performance a personal encounter with movement, emotion, and survival.
