The Instrument
Amar
AMAR emerges as a domain in which silence, quietness, wordlessness and the actions that interrupt them, withdraw their concentration from one another in a circular motion. In this interplay, we question myth-folk relationships through dancing the fine line between tradition and invention. Scenes evolve in an instant; the atmosphere surrounding them is filled with memories, and the undeniability of a restful haven within intense manifestations.
