‘The Connected Stage’ Series: Kylián and Sangba

Memory glides across the dark; movement crystallises into landscape

Classics never truly end; new works bring them into focus anew.

An enduring work, using abstract movement to evoke the solitude of the sleepless and the mind adrift;
a new creation, where far and near, reality and illusion, overlap in layers, leaving space for the imagination to continue.

Jiří Kylián’s classic Sleepless cuts through the still night with abstract movement, tracing the solitude of the insomniac and the mind adrift. Time lingers between stillness and suspension, leaving behind a faint echo.

In Sang Jijia’s new work a | ch, far and near views intersect, while light, shadow and bodies overlap. The landscape resists being seen all at once, leaving room for the imagination to continue.

Looking is an endless act of wandering. Through difference, new paths emerge, revealing new forms of beauty and meaning.
