Insomnia (2016)

Between awakening and sleep, lies the abnormal state of insomnia. More than just a physiological concept, insomnia connects the tension of daily life with the shape of a dream world.

Memories and cravings, anxiety and carnival, secrets and confessions slowly unfold in interviews, podcast, dance and video, interweaving into an intertextual discussion about insomnia on the stage.

In this piece, instead of leading to anxiety, insomnia enlightens an exit towards adventures.
