Potsdamer Tanztage: Nawa | Sahar Damoni (Schefar’am)

In the organizer's words:

Nawa continues Sahar Damoni's work on the subject of abortion and shifts the focus to the physical and psychological consequences of the procedure and anesthesia. On the stage are metal poles that can be lamps, masts, obstacles and supports. Sahar Damoni uses them as a framework for a journey into various mental and emotional states. Through fog-like sounds and sensations, she wanders into the depths of the subconscious and asks: Can the body remember? Sahar Damoni evokes the duality of pleasure and pain, of the conscious and the subconscious, while showing ways to a possible healing. The dance combines movement, photography and video, sound and textiles to create diverse landscapes that encompass the personal, the communal and the political.

Followed on both days by an audience discussion (Thu: all public / Fri: women only)
