2023 RE-CONNECT《The Soul of Leaves》Performance X Talk

Introduction

● “Every step on Earth leaves traces, whether it’s in the sand, in the snow, or in the soft forest floor. These traces tell stories of encounters, movements, and life. In both – the real and the digital world. ”

It’s an experimental piece of performance art

Breathe Breathe Breathe

Into nature, describe the traces, observe the movement, feel the encounter

The local creative process is particularly important

The digital Internet is not a cold web

It’s a village where the connection takes place in the moment

Plastic toy cars weave aimlessly

After the monstera, rustle, rustle

Dancers, musicians/African drummers were invited to create an in-depth exchange of ideas and a clash of professional views after the curtain fell
You are welcome to join us in listening to the story of the leaves
