The performance is a man’s inner journey into himself and an encounter with his darkest darkness. An encounter with a force that draws you in and from which it is sometimes very difficult, sometimes even impossible, to break away. But if you dare to look at it, it can become recognisable. Then the contours of concrete feelings and emotions emerge, which can already be named, accepted, released or allowed to be. The darkness may not disappear, but one can always look for something to help one be with it, to help one survive, to lead one forward, to be that counterbalance of light. That includes your own body. Your own beautiful, danceable body. After all, the desire to live is determined by the desire to act. <\/p>\n
\u201cThrough the interplay of light, darkness, dance, words, and music, we create a story about drawing near and encountering the Other\u2014someone who is hard to grasp but is always very close,\u201d says Dovil\u0117 Binkauskait\u0117.<\/p>\n
\u201cTo turn inward is to see the entire contents of your heart\u2026 both the light and the darkness. We all have our own shadow\u2014it is our fear, envy, distrust, anger, disappointment, a lack of meaning, and doubts. According to C. G. Jung, the shadow contains that part of us that we do not acknowledge as our own, with which we do not identify, and which we do not nurture; we push it away from ourselves, thereby making it grow even stronger. However, the shadow is also a part of us. It is important to pause, recognize, acknowledge, and learn to be true to the Self we have discovered. It is not easy, but it is the first step toward liberation,\u201d notes Gintar\u0117 Radvilavi\u010di\u016bt\u0117. <\/p>\n
