Ustvarjalni proces za pričujočo predstavo se je začel pred enim letom. V tem letu so plesalci po en teden preživeli v vsaki od partnerskih držav, skupaj so plesali, improvizirali, nastopali in živeli. Tako so izmenjavali svoje znanje, vrednote, zamisli, estetike in razmišljali o različnih kontekstih, iz katerih izhajajo. Sama predstava pomeni nadaljevanje tega procesa, je predstava o tem procesu. V okviru procesa smo skušali najti tisto, kar nam je skupno, ob čemer nismo želeli izgubiti svoje individualnosti in identitete, temveč smo se raje osredotočili na to, kako biti/delovati skupaj. Kako se strinjati, kako se ujemati. Za predstavo bi lahko rekli, da je neposreden rezultat globalizacije, čeprav z njo ne želimo podajati političnih stališč. V procesu globalizacije smo udeleženi, smo njen proizvod in koristnik. Pričujoča plesna predstava je nastala s pomočjo improvizacije, repeticije in spomina, z njo smo želeli najti in iznajti novo domovanje za plesalce, ki smo ga izdelali iz možnosti, referenc in zgodovin, ki so ali nam niso skupne. Ta dom morda lahko postanejo naša telesa oziroma samozavedanje nas samih kot posameznikov v naših zasebnih prostorih; a v pričujočem delu smo našli svoj dom v komunikaciji ter dialogu med seboj in z drugimi.

V predstavi ta proces uprizarjamo in ga postavljamo pred gledalce. Preizprašujemo, kaj je predstava, kaj je uprizoritev, kdaj se začne, kaj je tisto, kar bi želeli pokazati, kaj skriti, kje je predstava v tem prostoru. To nam omogoča, da medtem ko nastopamo, vseeno ostajamo znotraj procesa. Izjemno se veselimo trenutka, ko bomo stopili pred občinstvo ter tako zaokrožili svoje potovanje. Z veseljem vas pričakujemo v svojem domu-prostoru.

The process for this creation began a year ago, since when 5 dancers have met at intervals to spend a week in each others company in each of the partner countries. During these weeks they have danced, improvised, performed and lived together - communicating and exchanging values, thoughts, aesthetics and context. This creation continues this process. The work is about this.

We are searching for a common ground, not to lose our individuality or identity in this process but to be together in purpose and action. To be in agreement. This piece is the direct result of globalisation, but we are not politically motivated to comment on this. We are involved, a product of it and the beneficiaries of it.  This work is a pure dance piece, constructed using improvisation, repetition and memory in order to find and develop a new home for these dancers to occupy out of the possibilities, references and histories that we do/n't share. Perhaps our body or sense of ourselves as an individual can become this home, each shut into a private space, but in this work we find a home in the communication and dialogue between ourselves and others.

In this work we perform the process and expose it to view. We question what is the performance, when does it start, what do we want to show, what do we want to hide, where is performance in this space. This analogue allows us to be within the process as we perform. We are excited to be joined by an audience to complete this journey and welcome you to this home-space.
