Overview:
This sculptural and hypnotic ballet choreographed by Juliano Nunes in 2020 explores what it means to be connected:Â
"All the while, our connection continues to slowly pulsate in and out, like a heartbeat, the connection that keeps us all growing.
the simplicity of being present with humanity and getting inspired by each other. We are offered a window into this world
A body and a mind.
I'm holding onto our story simply by a piece of invisible string.
Are we fated to cross paths once again?
Connected."
