Trust - Kalpanarts

Building, Breaking and Gaining Trust

Trust unravels the complexity of trust in all its facets. Trust is the core of our existence, determining our relationships and our view on life. But what does trust really mean? Do we dare to surrender to trust in a world where mistrust often prevails?

The performance is danced by 5 dancers, and accompanied by the enchanting voice of Spanish singer Paloma Lazaro Arteaga. In breathtaking duets, the performers show how trust can be built, broken and regained, while the audience is taken on a journey of strength and vulnerability.

In Indian philosophy and society, trust is about letting go of the urge to control everything. It requires an inner journey, turning inward to discover your core and strength. Only then can you face the world with courageous steps and make well-considered choices. The Hindu concept of Maya, the veil of illusions and the 'six-healing-sounds-meditation' from Taoism, form the basis of the choreography.
