Contradiction as logical incompatibility between propositions pushes us to see things from greater perspective, from logical comprehensions to primal instincts. Beyond good or bad, correct or incorrect. It calls for the openness of meeting oneself face to face. Only the intention of a seeker counts, where hearts burst and minds are blown. We want to re-pattern limitations, de-code the way of creating, reveal that there can be many more ways to shape performance action, ways of thinking about theatre, acting, dancing or performing. Contradictions are breaking restrains which we put upon us and often even didn’t have time to notice. We don’t need much more than human presence and dedication.
